If I have posted this in the wrong place then can the mods please move it.
My Abbot, Ajahn Dr. Apisit is ill, in hospital in Chaing Mai.
He has been hospitalized for a couple of months now suffering from Hep B and his kidney is shot due to taking parecetamol, before being diagnosed.
Tomorrow morning(March 1) at 7:00 am many of the Ajahns from the Fang area will be coming to the temple here to chant for Dr. Apisits health.
I would ask that perhaps you too could send metta to Dr. Apisit.
Thank you,
With metta,
Phra Greg

Bhikkhus, if you develop and make much this one thing,
it invariably leads to weariness, cessation, appeasement, realization and extinction.
What is it? It is recollecting the Enlightened One.
If this single thing is recollected and made much,
it invariably leads to weariness, cessation, appeasement, realization and extinction.

Maha-karuna!
To avoid all evil, to cultivate good, and to cleanse one's mind — this is the teaching of the Buddhas.

consider it done, Bhante.
...he wondered whether there was any love between human beings that did not rest upon some sort of self-delusion.

Hi everyone. Thankyou for your kind thoughts.
Dr Apisit remains ill in hosital, but is starting to feel a little better.
I think we will be without him here at the temple for a while yet.
Sorry I have been away for so long, but have just been getting in some practice.
With metta,
Phra Greg

Greetings bhante,
That's nothing to be sorry about - it's good to hear.
Good to hear also your abbot is slowly on the mend.
Metta,
Retro.

If you have asked me of the origination of unease, then I shall explain it to you in accordance with my understanding:
Whatever various forms of unease there are in the world, They originate founded in encumbering accumulation. (Pārāyanavagga)
'We should not congratulate someone on the success of their misdeeds, but on the contrary should endeavour to advise him or her to lead a more skilful and wholesome life. If such advice is ignored then we can only give up and let go' - Phra Panyapatipo
