SANGHA KOMMUNE (SSR)

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

28/03/2017 Adrian (釋大道)

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.

Pakistan: Samarkand Chess Olympiad 2026 – Israel “Boycotted” in Favour of “Palestine Solidarity”! (19.9.2026)

19/09/2026 Adrian (釋大道)

I had know idea historical Samarkand is now situated in the modern Nation State of Uzbekistan (a former Soviet Republic) an Islamic country. When the US and UK invaded Revolutionary Russia between 1918-1921 – the (58,000) British Army tended to manoeuvre around this general geographical area (the British committed an atrocity in Baku – Azerbaijan – by murdering unarmed Soviet POWs). So ashamed was the British Nation after this shameful event – no regiment in the British Army claim these actions as “battle honours”. The US tried to extend WWI to happening between 1914-1921 (these dates actually appear on some plaques) – but Great Britain refused this designation and limited WWI to “1914-1918” (although occasionally a plaque will read “1914-1919”) when the Soviet Red Army prevailed (the formation of the USSR was established in late 1922). Now, I know people from Pakistan sometimes access this blog – so I have added a few “Urdu” texts with English translation. Never stop learning.

The Good Iman, Wife & Daughter Receiving the Award in London!

Church of Pakistan: Iman Hafiz Tahir Ashrafi [طاہر محمود اشرفی] Receives “Global Peace Award”! (19.9.2026)

19/09/2026 Adrian (釋大道)

As an individual with no political power – the Iman has stated that the existing “blasphemy law” should not be misused to attack non-Muslims – but he broadly supports punishing bona fide attacks on his faith (what more could he do – considering the situation he is in?). Bear in mind that the CofE has been historically riddled with allegations of paedophilia, and permits St Pauk’s Cathedral to me used for “raves”. Furthermore, whether an individual (or group) is Christian or not – the CofE permits people to use Churches as “hotels” over a single night or a number of nights – indeed, this highly expensive and lucrative development is termed “Champing”! I have personal experience of this – as I stayed over-night in a local Church assessing if claims of “hauntings” had any validity (there was no evidence). I note the CofE has registered the term “Champing” as a “Trade Mark” (after-all, the CofE has only just ended its long-term investment in the arms industry). I support a universal freedom of thought that gives equal weight to “believing” and “not-believing” in religion. Religionists must accommodate and accept atheism and non-theism – just as secularists must tolerant those who believe in a sky-spirit. Religions tolerating one another’s delusions is not the answer – it is just a step. Religionists should not be offended by my words.

‘I want Labour defeated, and only way of doing that is a vote for @ZackPolanski,’ says Mr Galloway’s ex-Chief of Staff in Commons

UK: Growing “Galloway Backlash” for Standing Against Zack Polanski! (19.9.2026)

19/09/2026 Adrian (釋大道)

I believe that Galloway is today a right-wing Trotskyite – a left-leaning fascist. Polanski has told numerous (exposed) lies. Choices, choices for the UK’s bourgeoise’s left. I would not vote for Galloway, Labour, or the Greens – they are all bourgeois distortions of genuine leftist concerns. The authentic (Marxist-Leninist) left will not be found in reactionary opposition to (or the embracing of) Zionist or Jihadi politics. No – the left is moving the deckchairs around on the Titanic. The Greens previously benefitted from a split in the right[wing vote in the Dover by-election – and now the Greens look set to exploit a similar split in the left-wing vote in the Holborn and St Pancreas by-election. The Greens are a neo-liberal outfit that changes political direction with te wind, and which cannot be trusted to represent the working-class. The Greens are too busy representing the reactionary politics of other countries.

Taliban Schools Out-Law Unauthorised Smiling

UK: “Taliban-Style” School Discipline Comes to Somerset! (18.9.2026)

18/09/2026 Adrian (釋大道)

It is a primitive culture that equates “literacy” with “rebellion”. In Somerset, “lack of freedom” is illogically equated with “literacy”. Creative expression is equated with a “deviation” from the norm – but whose “norm” are we talking about? A disadvantaged working-class child will continue to be a disadvantaged working-class child – even if their personal freedom is compromised. The “weight” of society is already balanced against them. No. Like the brutality of the Taliban – the Somerset Solution is designed all crush freedom of expression. Of course, the justification for all this suffering is that it allegedly “does the children good” – but surely – this is a form of child abuse. Not all children will be high-achievers or geniuses. Nature (and evolution) is just not like that. The lumpen proletariat (of which I am a part) are “average” in achievement – but this is precisely how humanity has developed. It is the “group effort” that matters – and not usually the antics of an individual whose “behaviour” (UK spelling) does not equate to the well-being of the collecive.
