the mountain may be heavy in and of itself, but if you're not trying to carry it it's not heavy to you- Ajaan Suwat

Thank you for posting that.
What is the use of his knowledge
pertaining to the number of insects in the whole world?
Rather, inquire into his knowledge of
that which is to be practised by us
-- Dharmakirti
This being is bound to samsara, kamma is his means for going beyond.

Níl sa saol seo ach ceo
There is naught in this life but mist
Is ní bheimid beo ach seal beag gearr.
And we will not be alive but a short hard time.

I guess that saving trees would be on a case by case basis.....all trees have their own problems.....etc.

Friends,
This is what the corrupt and wicked system of dirty money and wrong living hood is doing all over the world.
It is a shame that someone kill a disciple of The Lord, a being that intent only to benefit others.
I'm horrified, this kind of information make rise the most disgust feelings in me.
Some beings can be very ignorant to do that kind of action.
May all have peace.
