Thank you 🙏🏼 for validating my intuitive knowing. Wish you all the best in your journey.

Buddha himself did not outright denounce money and material possessions. He simply cautioned against letting such worldly things control, change, and possess us. When greed and hungry desire become us, we lose sight of how we could use these material riches to help the world and humanity at large. Rather than condemning materialism altogether, Buddhism recognises when it is essential but distinguishes between excess and mindfully consuming.

Perhaps, practice the art of letting go and give up desire by removing desire, like your desire to own land and things and come to Thailand and match your thoughts (shared in your words) with your behaviour and immerse yourself in a Buddha principled life versus this attempt to bring a western way of living and possessing. I anticipate rude comments from most people with a base of culture other than the authentic Thai people.
