King of Thailand's Birthday

edited December 2011 in Buddhism Today
The 5th of December marks the King of Thailands birthday, I forget how old he will be and probably a quick google search will tell you.

I am sad to say however, it could well be his last as he is so old an ill. The Kind here is so highly acclaimed and loved, that when he dies many people think the country will be under a blanket of depression as a whole at best, at worse mass civil unrest. To speak of his death or anything bad about the King to a Thai is also something you should never do, you will almost always get a bad reaction, a very bad one at that.

Anyways, happy birthday :clap:

  • What that will be died is his body, and what that never dies is his compassion and love to its people. He is so passionate and proud of his people because they are cultured and harmonious to foreigners that make thailand and the king so lovely in the eyes of foreigners. Happy Birthday and if he departs to Buddha land for good in future, may he return back to Thailand to lead its people for much more joys and passion :thumbsup:
