Sad news again!!

Image
 Feeling physically sick and sad.  88 of our newly planted heritage apple trees have all been cut at the bottom.  Done in such a sneaky way. They've lifted up the tree guard, snipped the apple tree and dropped it back.  Well over £2000 worth of trees were planted here!  Never mind the man hours looking after it to be vandalized like this!  This is absolutely criminal.  If anyone in Belvoir estate knows or have seen people do this please send me a message. The trees were just off the top of Belvoir drive. Plenty of houses opposite this site. Maybe someone seen something.  I'm so so disheartened with the amount of trees thats been cut down over the past few months.  I still think this is the work of the authorities which they are all denying for some reason. I honestly think they are covering this up.  Back in Spring when the environment agency came to interview me I was adamant with them that I would go to court and defend my trees under ...

A liberating experience

Image
 Great keeping the comments turned off on my posts guys. What a liberating experience it has been.   I never was one for social media, all I ever used it for was selling stuff in the past.  When I first started The Phantom Planter page around 7 years ago now I was never intending to have my comments turned on.  I dont really care what others have to say.  I have message that we all need to plant trees and care for nature more and thats it.  The Buddha tells us in this book to be careful of seeking praise, if your moved by praise you'll be moved by blame.  My own ego however got the better of me and I got caught up on here like everyone else having my ego praised and then bruised. Finding myself getting annoyed by the mentally deranged.  I also let my mind get filled with nonsense information that was futile to my own spiritual path and my own inner peace.  I made a big big mistake keeping caught up with the headcases on here in the comme...

The Kingdom of God is within

Image
 The Kingdom of God is within you.  Quote from JC.  The Buddha also said its only by looking within that we will truly awaken.  The Dharma and God are one.  The more I follow Buddhism the more I resonate with JC.  I've been looking for my Sangha up here in Belfast.  I want to find wise teachers that I can talk and learn from.  A Sangha is your spiritual family.  I went to a potential one the other night but right away some members started talking about how much they hated certain flags and another spoke of very political devisive topics right from her first words.  Schisms in the Sangha came to mind for me. Which the Buddha says these types of actions will result in rebirth in the Hell realms.  The search will go on though.  They say when you find your Sangha its like coming home. You will know in your heart.  We all need teachers in this life. Wise people we look up too.  My old mate Billy Boy was probably my wise te...

Time to collect acorns

Image
 Right now ancient trees like this are abundant with seeds. Get out and collect them. Grow them up and phantom plant. Its our duty to replace the trees we've taken down.  These islands were once massive forests that stretched the length of the country.  Now we have few pockets left that we look upon like little nature museums. Its not how its meant to be.  We live around trees. Not they live around us.  Soil Soul Society  Interconnected interdependent  I challenge you to phantom plant a tree  Peace and love  The Phantom Planter and Wee betty

Buddha Beds

Image
 Anyone needing any top quality mattresses delivered anywhere in Northern Ireland search my website Buddha Beds. Facebook dont let me put links up now to other sites. What a bunch of greedy buggers.  Never build a business solely on antisocial media. So many people do these days and then when they change a few things many peoples businesses can be plunged into turmoil.  I built a business once that was going amazing and dependent solely on one courier company that was the only one that delivered mattresses across the UK, then they had a policy change and they just stopped delivering parcels of that size.  That business went belly up overnight.  Remember guys there was businesses long before antisocial media. There is a demand out there for down to earth independent businesses.  Alan Sugars first business was boiling beetroots and selling them at the market.  Ingvar kamprad, owner of Ikea. His first business was selling matches around the doors.  M...
