The Sangha Kommune (僧伽公社) – A Place of Spiritual and Physical Growth! (Founded 16.2.2010)

The Chinese Buddhist monastic community is referred to as a ‘Sangha’ (Sanskrit for ‘spiritual community’), whereby men and women form a voluntary association premised upon following a strict set of rules known as the ‘Vinaya Discipline’. Within this community, there is ‘equality’ between all members, with the leaders being those who have followed these rules for the longest times. This is because such people are thought to have more experience at adhering to the Vinaya Discipline (which includes celibacy and vegetarianism), and are therefore able to effectively advise all others through the difficult times they my face in their practice. As those with little experience have less to share, they are not considered leaders whilst more experienced practitioners live in the vicinity.

He Saint’s Body Will Be Publicly Displayed For The First Time Photo: Sala Stampa For the First Time in 800 Years, the Body of Saint Francis of Assisi Will Be Displayed. Dates, Location, and Details Here | ZENIT - English

Italy: Relics of St Francis of Asisi – Placed on Display! (23.2.2026)

The story of the tomb of St. Francis, hidden for centuries beneath the main altar, lends an almost mystical undertone to this new era. After his death in 1226, the body was carefully hidden to avoid theft or desecration. It was only discovered in 1818, after a long search, and since then, several verifications have been carried out — most recently in 2015 –, which confirmed the authenticity and good state of preservation of the relics. Those bones, marked by the suffering and wounds of the Crucified One, are the physical echo of a life spent for love. The Basilica of St. Francis will become, during that month, the spiritual heart of the world. A massive influx of pilgrims from all Continents is expected. To guarantee a serene and prayerful experience, a free and mandatory reservation system has been established through the website http://www.sanfrancescovive.org, which is available in several languages.

2022 Rand Corporation Predicts Economic Turmoil in Europe!

DPRK: Europe in Trouble Due to US-Enforced Support for Neo-Nazi Ukraine! (23.2.2026)

Four years have passed since the outbreak of the Ukrainian crisis. After confronting Russia as a Western assault brigade, Ukraine has ended up on the defensive. It has lost countless soldiers and its economy is in ruins. Even according to the extremely underestimated figures released by the Ukrainian army, there are around 200,000 deserters and 2 million draft evaders. The total lack of young people ready to fight has led to the introduction of a law that imposes compulsory conscription for those over 60.

Honeywood Museum - Home Guard Fatigue-Jacket

UK: Sutton & Cheam Home Guard [WWII] – “Private Ernist Geirenger” [55th Surrey] – Preserved “Fatigue-Jacket”! (21.2.2026)

Indeed, it was the British Oxford graduate (and “Communist”) Tom Wintringham (1898-1949) who had masterminded the “Land Defence Volunteers Force” (LDVF) comprised of hundreds of thousands of eager working-class men and women – before Winston Churchill stepped-in and had every Socialist arrested and imprisoned. Churchill invented a “new” (false) history for what he re-named the “Home Guard” – claiming (again, falsely) that he had “invented” it. Whilst maintaining its essential “Socialist” ethos – Churchill kept the Unit under-armed and always lacking basic equipment and ammunition. He also made sure that as the Soviet Red Army moved ever closer to Berlin – the Home Guard was abolished in 1944 – before the war ended. However, during WWII the Home Guard was technically an ally of the USSR – and this is why the Unions urged hundreds of thousands of men and women to join it – although this “Socialist History is now deliberately obscured and difficult to find. The Home Guard was briefly re-mobilised inthe early 1950s when Churchill regained power – but was soon disbanded due to a lack of interest. Ordinary working-class men and women would not join to oppose a Soviet Union that was not a threat to the UK.

Honeywood Museum - Changing Perspectives! Disabled People in the Workforce!

UK: Honeywood Museum – Changing Perspectives! Disabled People in the Workforce – Exhibition! (21.2/2026)

Of course, this might not be the case due to severity – but each human being should be granted dignity. Whatever the case, the able-bodied society at large should not “punish” those who happen to possess a disability – just because such an individual requires assistance here or there. Punishing the poor and needy derives from the Christian notion of “charity” – which suggests god is punishing the impoverished and the disabled for an imagined “sin” of some kind. This attitude has been taken on by modern capitalist society as disabled people, due to their enhanced needs, are not as efficient to exploit for naked profit as their able-bodied colleagues are. Given a chance and appropriate support, many disabled people are able to contribute to society. In the cases where they are not – such individuals should be cared for with compassion by society at large.

Carshalton Ponds - Slip-Way!

Honeywood Museum: Charshalton Ponds & Billiard Room! (21.2.2026)

We visited the Honeywood Museum in nearby Carshalton Ponds – as the Staff and Management added a Chinese New Year display to the usual mixture of local history artefacts. We have visited in the past – but I do not recall the impressively “large” Billiard Room which seems to have been converted to a “Snooker Room”. Me and Gee sat and drank a cup of coffee outside the Honeywood Museum – watching the numerous types of birds traverse the surface of the water. I think we entered the Museum probably in the wrong direction – and immediately emerged in the Billiard Room – which seemed to corelate seamlessly with Pond itself. During Victorian times, the well to do, those who owned local business and large country-homes – often could often afford all the lateest scientific devices. The air around the Ponds was fresh and yet mild – a thoroughly invigorating experience!
