I spent some time in a Buddhist commune last summer and came across the diary I kept during that time the other day. Reading through some of the notes, I find some of them more relevant than ever; not even necessarily for myself but for people that I know.
Hao chak tham kam andaiwai
Whatever karma have I committed
Di kor tam
be it good
Sua kor tam
or evil
Hao cha pen phu hab phon kong kam nan nan
I am bound to reap the fruit of that karma
Hao thang lai chong phicharana thuk thuk mue kherd
Thus, these facts should be again and again contemplated.

you have me curious about this buddhist commune lol

Hi!
It was a place I came across by accident in Laos when out exploring the countryside just beyond Vientiane. It’s in the middle of nowhere and it’s mainly Laotians who stay there but there were two western women who had come across it by accident like me. They ended up staying for about 6 months – I only stayed a few days.
