Tsunami Catastrophe

It's been a tough 5 days since the Asia Tsunami strike asian countries. With around 100,000 death tolls, it is expected one of the greatest natural disaster humanity have been faced. I'm in Thailand and see lots of news, increasing death tolls, rescue attempts, cleaning up attempts, real-events video candits, etc. Yesterday after I recover from getting sick, I tried to find anything I could help to "practicing the obvious," and found myself in the Thai Red Cross Society, piling bags of clothes prepared to send to those who were affected in the southern part of Thailand.

There seems lots of scattering helps and unsystematic planning to deal with the situation. Anyway I blame no one since there has never been Tsunami attacks in Thailand before in its history. I cancel all my plans to go anywhere around New Year vacations and standby to help anything as much as I can. I intent to go into the area in Phuket and Khao Lak, but there seems to be too many volunteers down there with not much helps and, goshhh, my arms gets hurts from helping to piling bags of clothes yesterday.

All holons above the physical realm and all of their artifacts inside the turmoil physcial system were striked equally. The physical disaster affects all the emotional realm, mental realm and all realms above. Epedimics in the biological realm are going to come. Ecological problems is going to come. Emotional shock already occur. Mental disorder already occur. I'm waiting to join a group of counselors to go into the areas to help those of survivals, may be next few weeks. And that's the most suitable work for me to help in this situation.

The feeling of sorry is overwhelming over me. With the deepest awareness and compassion, I will practice Karma yoga as much as I can.
