Joint Leadership Statement of Unity: Issued by the Arab Socialist Action Party (Lebanon) & Popular Democratic Party! (19.10.2023)

19/10/2023 Adrian (釋大道)

Today, your minds and bodies are restrained by your Western governments which support the Zionist terrorism of Israel! They do this by confiscating your free conscience and your loud voice in the face of organized International Terrorism led by American imperialism – the Head of International Terrorism! The US influence besieges the headquarters of your governments and Parliaments! Oppose this US tyranny by raising the flags of Palestine in villages, towns and cities! Fly the Palestinian flag from balconies and let your voices sing-out in support of Palestine! The battle of the Palestinian people is a solid pillar in the battle to liberate humanity from fascism, Nazism, US hegemony, organized plunder, racial discrimination, and all the US and Isreali wars of extermination against humanity!

Eurocentric Woo-Woo and the Inverted Mythology Industry! (17.10.2023)

17/10/2023 Adrian (釋大道)

New Dawn then had a ‘White’ (Australian) supposed UFO expert contact me – a person who usually spouts the most outrageous nonsense to make a living – stating that I was ‘misleading’ the readership by suggesting that the Dropa Stones story was real! This is the kind of manipulative nonsense the Bourgeois publishing industry participates in nearly all the time! To circumnavigate this madness – I uploaded the published article (free) online – together with my original full-length article so that it can be read in its original context. Nowadays, of course, I have very little to do with the likes of New Dawn or Fortean Times – as I find the ‘White’, Eurocentric racism that permeates these magazines to be unpalatable – particularly coming from a Western cultures that where living in caves when most of the world was constructing vast and advanced civilisations! Ironically, without finding any extra-terrestrial stone artefacts!

Richard Hunn: The South-Paw Guitar Player! (15.10.2023)

15/10/2023 Adrian (釋大道)

his is how I ended-up training under Mangala Thero (in 1996) at the Ganga Ramaya Temple (in Beruwela) – situated in Sri Lanka. I have subsequently discovered that Mangala Mahathero has passed away after spending the last decade of his life living and meditating in isolation. I am told that Richard Hunn would sit ‘still’ for hours on end in various Zen Temples throughout the Kyoto area. Although outwardly he was practicing ‘Zen’ – inwardly he was practicing ‘Caodong’ Ch’an – the preferred lineage of Master Xu Yun (1840-1959). Although none of us know how long we will be on this Earth – we must remain vigilant and use our time effectively and productively! Not a single second must be wasted when it comes to self-cultivation! Instead of reading this board – look within! Richard Hunn was my academic and spiritual teacher between 1989-2006. He taught me to read and translate properly every modern and traditional Chinese language ideogram – whilst also conveying to me the teachings of the authentic Chinese Ch’an Buddhist tradition!

Palestine: Liberation from Zionist Fascist Occupation is Near! (14.10.2023)

14/10/2023 Adrian (釋大道)

Speaking to Al-Arabi Al-Jadeed, Lutfi added, “What saddens us is what is happening in Gaza in terms of the Zionist Nazi bombing, aggression, and brutal attacks on all the people of the Strip, including children and women. But the Resistance has no choice but to continue the battle, and we are of course going to achieve victory. The Resistance has not yet revealed all its cards!” anticipating that “if it opens the Northern Front – it will be the end of this Zionist Nazi entity!”

Venerable Old Master Xu Yun [虚云]: No Difference Between a Monk and a Lay-Person! (14.10.2023)

14/10/2023 Adrian (釋大道)

For instance, by cross-referencing the below May 1955 Dharma-Talk with the text of ‘Empty Cloud’ for that year – a more all-round picture can be built of exactly what was happening and how Master Xu Yun was reacting to it. To be clear, Master Xu Yun was adamant that an ordained Buddhist monastic must follow ALL the rules of the Vinaya Discipline and that a lay-person must follow a least five, eight or ten of the basic vows contained in the Vinaya Discipline. This is a practical distinction Master Xu Yun upheld – as he rejected the Japanese Zen tradition of monks being allowed to eat meat, drink alcohol and get married. Such individuals are ‘lay-people’ and NOT monks. This being the case, what is Master Xu Yun referring to when he states that there is ‘no difference’ between the ordained Sangha and the laity?

#Al-Aqsa_Flood – How YouTube Supports Zionist Fascism & Aggression! (12.10.2023)

12/10/2023 Adrian (釋大道)

All those who are able – must come to aid of the innocent (Palestinian) ‘civilians’ (men, women and children) currently having their bodies blown to pieces by Western-provided arms – used by the Zionist War Machine of Israel – the laughably named ‘Israeli Defence Force’ (IDF)! Fighting fascism is a working-class duty no matter where you live or happen to have been born! Resisting Israeli (Zionist) fascism can take many different forms – including writing, thinking and acting (in many different ways). I am resisting Zionist fascism as I write – whilst many around me pursue their usual US-induced psychological stupor which reduces us all to minions of US anti-intellectualism! Shame on you if you support the Zionist fascists!
