Killing kind compassionate beings

What is this world coming to? Imagine.. killing holy Monks, who are revered and respected as they are the most compassionate and kind form of humans in this world of ours. Today's headlines in all over the world would read "Unrest in Myanmar...Monks killed!"





It was reported that Burmese security forces opened fire on protesters and onlookers with live ammunition and tear gas on Wednesday, killing at least three people, including one monk. ….. Eyewitnesses told RFA’s Burmese service that they saw three truckloads of monks and protesters—around 200 people in all—were seen entering the notorious Insein prison in the city. Independent sources reported at least three deaths, including one monk and two lay people.

These are some interesting sites and blogs. Some of the photos are from the following sites:

Burmese blogger Ko Htike has a source who is a part-time worker in the emergency room at Rangoon General Hospital, reported: “At about 2:00 p.m., five patients was coming to our emergency….for gun shots from government militaries,” he wrote, in what appeared to be a hurried posting on his blog Wednesday. “One patient died on the spot on arriving at hospital…[shot on Bladder] 4 r still bad in Diagnosis.”

It was also reported that two monks were beaten to death while another was shot when he tried to wrestle a gun away from a soldier and the weapon discharged, officials said.

They said the monks were killed near Rangoon’s Shwedagon Pagoda, Burma’s holiest site and a key rallying point during the last nine days of protests

I have been receiving messages from my Guru H.E. Tsem Tulku Rinpoche and my Reiki Master TF Law. These were their messages:-

H.E. Tsem Tulku Rinpoche, “Please pray for the safety & security of our Dharma brothers and sisters in Myanmar. Monks & nuns are gathered in the streets there in peaceful protests requesting compassion from the military government. This isn't politics & we must be concerned about the possible outcome as history in Myanmar indicates these protests often end in violent tragedy......."

Reiki Master TF Law, "I thought some of you might be interested to participate in this. For L1 Reikians, you can send metta, good thoughts, hold a puja, etc for this event. For L2 Reikians and above, you might want to send RDH with
the following affirmation, or something to this effect......"
