[Thailand]Seeing that Bangkok's needy lead
impoverished lives while most other people joyously welcome in the New
Year, fellow practitioners in Thailand decided to bring gifts to homeless
city residents on the first day of the New Year to brighten their spirits
and share Master's love.
Fellow initiates enthusiastically purchased gifts and
headed off to two places where many homeless live. At the canals near
the Hualumpong Railway Station, homeless children survive by living
on the streets. These pitiful youngsters were very happy and excited
to receive their gifts from the brother and sister initiates.
Near the broad Chaopraya River, families of needy old
and young people gather in the shelter of the Prapinklao Bridge. One
old man who lives under the Bridge, after receiving a gift and a flyer,
looked at Master's picture for a long while, deeply impressing all the
practitioners present. Fellow initiates were glad that Master's unconditional
love was transferred to this unfortunate community.
