When one has the feeling of dislike for evil, when one feels tranquil, one finds pleasure in listening to good teachings; when one has these feelings and appreciates them, one is free of fear.
-- The Buddha
His 'war paint' is talcum mixed to a paste with water and is traditionally spread around on people, vehicles, buildings, dogs cats and sausages during songkran. Bangkok has taken almost four days to remove the worst of the talcum from theur signage etc. this year.
