I’d like to share a useful tip today. In contrast to the majority of plants, lantanas from the verbena family have small, colorful flower clusters and rough, jagged leaves that produce an essential oil containing a strong scent that repels dengue-causing Aedes mosquitoes. You can dry out its foliage, crush it, then throw it into a burning fire to deter mosquitoes. You can also plant lantana around the entrance of your home. This perennial shrub flourishes in moist or dry soil in sunny locations. However, it also easily adjusts to poor soil conditions and is very invasive, outcompeting native species, so it is best to contain them by growing them in hanging baskets or pots.
If your good mood tank needs some extra fuel, you’ve come to the right place as the joke of the day is here. This one’s called “Switching Tables.”
A woman walked into a cool vegan restaurant and sat down at a table by the window. The server quickly ran over and said:
“Ma’am, I’m very sorry, but this table is already reserved!”
“Then please take this table away and bring me another one!”
?!
And now we have a heartline from Zoey in Canada:
Beloved Master, How are You? Hope You are safe and healthy. I’d like to share a little story about my late father with You and the Supreme Master Television team. My father passed away on April 21 at the age of 92. He was a devout Christian. In his final days, due to the medication given by the nurses, he was in a state of deep slumber. On the day before his passing, I visited him at the hospital to care for him. I played Supreme Master Television radio on one cell phone and Master’s Buddha’s Chanting on another. As there were no other patients in the room at the time, I played the Buddha’s Chanting quite loudly. After it had been playing for a few minutes, I witnessed a brief but touching moment - my father smiled for a few seconds. It brought immense joy to my heart to see that, knowing that even though he may not have professed belief in You, Master, Your Divine presence was there, comforting him. I believe with all my heart that You were guiding him, offering solace and support. Thank You so much, Master, for Your boundless Love and Compassion! May God Almighty, all Heavens, Cosmic benevolent, beings and all the powerful and mighty Gods protect and shield You! May all Your wishes come true! Zoey from Canada
Filial Zoey, Our appreciation for sharing your touching story about your father.

Plus, the Blessing Power from Supreme Master Television and the Buddha’s Chanting tapes cleanse the atmosphere and provide connection and comfort to those who hear it. Love you.
