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.

Dad's Funeral Card - 2026

Torbay: Graven Images Are Appearing & Our Funeral Card for My Dad! (4.6.2026)

As an older man myself, I am unperturbed by the passing of my father. This inner state of non-friction is a product of two distinct influences on my life – my father’s attitude to material reality (always be fearless and move forward when under fire) – and Buddhist meditation (remove greed, hatred, and delusion from within – and do not create the conditions that manifests these taints externally). It is a multifaceted approach to conflict resolution in the world. Yes – I have seen my father’s now deceased body – and it is a body that is no longer functioning. He is no longer in physical pain. Indeed, natural processes have removed his presence from the physical world – just as they brought him into it a little over 84-years ago. This does not absolve those around him who contributed to his suffering – as they shall be forever damned – but such an attitude demonstrates that externally deriving ignorance will crush or divert our way of viewing the world. We will not bend or bow-down to tyranny.

How Do Magnets Works?

US: Public Access – “How Do Magnets Work?” (4.6.2026)

. The USSR had a free book-publishing system that permitted any citizen to use to write, publish, and read a book entirely at the government’s expense. This was introduced early in the history of the USSR and effectively broke the monopoly once enjoyed by the profit-seeking publisher. In the US, citizens were permitted to access TV broadcasting frequencies – either free or at very little expense – which allowed locally made TV programmes to be shown to whoever wanted to watch them outside of the commercially-controlled mainstream system – as no official or corporate advertising was permitted on Public Access. Above, we see a Christian Preacher asked by a random caller “How Do Magnets Work?” This is one of the funniest – and yet poignant questions I have ever heard. Beautiful spamming in the US even prior to the internet.

DPRK: “Dagger in Heart of Asia” Remark – Intensive Manifestation of US Hegemonism and Cold War Mentality! (3.6.2026)

The U.S., which had expressed its plan to reorganize the U.S. forces in the ROK into the “strategic task force” and “regional expeditionary force” since 2004, reached an agreement with the ROK on “strategic flexibility” of the U.S. forces in the ROK in January 2006, and in the 2010 Defense Department report, it clarified for the first time that the U.S. forces in the ROK could be dispatched to other regions according to the principle of “strategic flexibility”.

And in the National Security Strategy Report in December that year, it stressed the need for the regional allies including the ROK to increase the defence expenditure with the main emphasis on strengthening the capabilities needed for containing hostile countries and protecting the “first island chain”.

China: Authorities “Punish” 15 Cyberbullies who Targetted Local Party Cadre! (3.6.2026)

However, after she appeared in an interview wearing a pair of earrings, she became the target of groundless online attacks. Some users speculated that the jewelry weighed as much as 100 grams and posted disparaging comments, including claims that “ordinary rural women can’t afford gold earrings” and that “she would be more touching if she donated the earrings.” The ministry said such remarks disrupted the atmosphere surrounding disaster-relief efforts.

Cyber police quickly identified 15 instances of online abuse and took action, the statement said. Administrative penalties were imposed on several online users under Chinese law, including a 44-year-old man surnamed Qin and a 45-year-old man surnamed Wei.
