Welcome back to the
second part of our
Koh Phangan Shiva Moon series. The
first part of this series,
Koh Phangan Shiva Moon Experience, can be found
here. Enjoy!
Well ... I think you've also watched these movies like
Return of the Yeti Knights,
The Empire Strikes Back or
Rocky I,II,III,IV and V or
The Evil Never Ends Part XXIII?
Anyway ... since this years high season in 2006
again on the island menu
The Shiva Moon Empire Strikes Back!
Well ... so what's that
Shiva Moon Empire actually? Originally it's a butcher family specialized in killing pigs and then offering those nice pieces of fresh meet on the local Baan Tai market. Their
Shiva Moon Headquarters are located next to the local Baan Tai fresh market just after that tiny bridge on the left hand side.
A funny thing probably also worth mentioning is that some family members of the
Shiva Moon Empire are natural born
Gatheus, better known as
lady boys in the western world. This could perhaps reveal some genetic malfunctions if we would dig deeper into that genetic code from that butcher family. Unfortunately
Island News Headquarters doesn't have sufficient funds at the moment to experiment a bit with the world of genetic wonders & miracles but we have already received a few hair samples of some family members by an anonymous supporter ;-)
However ...
how is it actually possible that the
Shiva Moon Empire is allowed to strike back?
Well ... first we should probably concentrate a bit on the
messenger of our beloved lord Buddha, who actually was responsible for the
first shut down of the
Shiva Moon Party!
So ... what happened to our
Buddhist messenger? According to the island network of mouth propaganda and word of gossip
the awful truth is always shocking and breathe taking. The main nun from the temple
Wat Khao Tham actually decided that having a nice
Shiva Moon Party from time to time, just next to her temple, isn't such a bad thing at all! As long as
some form of compensation is given to her that would
definitely guide her back into the
inner bliss of enlightenment and
Vipassana meditation ;-)
What form of compensation is our beloved messenger of Buddha talking about? Well ... the locals here call it
Tam Boon - doing a good deed! The good deed mostly comes again in form of
tiny printed sheets of paper which actually and indeed will guide you into some form of
altered mind experience but I'm not sure what state of blissful mind the
Buddhist female messenger is actually referring to?

To gain personal experience on that
blissful state of mind I want to encourage you to take some
super glue and a
100 US$ dollar note
100 Thai Baht should also do the trick and just stick that printed paper directly on your
3rd eye chakra, sit up straight and inhale and exhale deeply for about
15-20 minutes! After a while you will start seeing
pink elephants flying by and other
tropic freaking shit DON'T PANIC and start diving deeper into that blissful state of mind!
Have fun!
Another thing worth concentrating on is the
patronage system of our local island officials! Years ago this was easily done by lets say a
fixed pricing system! Meaning one night of party activity costs you around ... well ... I really don't know ... let's say
20.000 Thai Baht. But as things got more and more improved and the local party organizers finally figured out that they can easily charge a
fixed entrance fee of 200 Baht, the local island officials figured out that they got screwed over! The party organizers made a profit of around
300.000 Thai Baht and even more only based on that entrance fee. Probably a total profit of around
500.000 Thai Baht per night if you calculate the massive amounts of Chang Beer, Saeng Som Buckets, blowjobs, ganja, xxxxxxx, xxx xxx and other xxxx xxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxx.
Well ... understandable that the local patronage system of police agents and district officers were
not at all satisfied with the current pricing solution and therefore introduced a new, more advanced system resulting in
no more fixed prices! Instead they asked for a percentage on the entrance fee ... a so called
dynamic pricing system!
So ... I don't have any idea what the exact percentage is at the moment but at least I've seen a couple of police agents at the
black moon and
half moon party gates, standing next to those bamboo huts where they collect the holy entrance fee! Probably monitoring their nightly income?
Anyway ... back to our lovely
Shiva Moon Party experience. As you can easily figure out it is not physical power that lets spin the earth around the sun ... it's simply just the
flow of money which keeps a
Buddhist nun in her
blissful state of mind and island officials bending the laws forward and backward!
Then ... what do the locals living in
Baan Tai and
Baan Nuea village think about this amazing
Shiva Moon Party experience, which is just celebrated at the end of their village offering excellent sound quality and massive base vibes throughout the night every 2 weeks?
To be honest ... most of the locals are just simply
pissed off! A couple of months ago at their monthly meeting with the village chief ... this so called
Phu Yai Baan guy ... they complained about the terrible noise and the lack of sleep. So another village messenger was sent to the
Shiva Moon Headquarters promises were made and nothing has actually ever changed since then.
Again ... where the heck is this so called
Thai Culture? That family style tradition with
respect for each other and the elders, and this so called
Mai Pen Rai attitude? Where is it? I'm having problems seeing it or is it just that stupid 100 Thai Baht note that is stuck to my forehead disturbing my clear view and blissful state of mind?
Ha Ha Ha ... It's so funny ;-) Probably the right time to introduce you to another well known local attitude which you will not find advertised in any of these lovely
Go Explore the Island magazines!
There is something the local Thais on the island call
Hen Khae Tua!
To be continued ...
