Greek Bird

Daoism Email: Birds Sing in China – Birds Sing in Greece! (14.7.2025)

We do not charge money when sharing knowledge – and as long as we can afford the hosting fees – this website will remain open and free to use for everyone! Even if a time comes when this is no longer possible – I hope the articles will have been copied and passed on as is for the general benefit of humanity. Remember, breathing costs nothing, and being aware of breathing costs nothing – so there is no profit margin! Away with all the charlatans of the world and those who try to sell you your own bodily processes! A cultivated wisdom sees through this kind of inherent ignorance which is a sign of the times.

Hedgehog Eating & Drinking!

Sutton: Hedgehog Asks for Water During Heat-Wave! (14.7.2025)

When I lived in Devon during my youth – hedgehogs used to be everywhere. We used to see them all the time and most gardens possessed at least one resident hedgehog. I know some lived very long and grew to surprising sizes. The last time I saw a hedgehog in Sutton was probably around 2008 in the back garden of the then house (in Westfield Road) I lived-in – but I have not seen one in the wild since then. The only time we have seen hedgehogs locally – has been in special areas of nature conservation but in a sense – these are not truly wild in the unmanaged sense. I am not sure why we do not see so many wild hedgehog in the Sutton area – perhaps their populations are low – or they choose to hide for some reason. We hope their numbers improve and remember to give them water and cat-food – or similar!

The 15th Dalai Lama will reincarnated in China - not the non-Buddhist West!

BMA (UK): Corrupt Lamaism Outside China “Jockeying” for Reincarnation Influence! (12.7.2025)

The religious myth being perpetuated is that this supposedly enlightened being is slowly transform in into light – reflected to us lesser mortals as a “rainbow”. Is this how a Nazi dies? Surely not. As reincarnation does not exist within authentic Buddhism – reincarnation is not rebirth – how can the incorrect path of Lamaism claim to be “Buddhist” – or even unfolding in any coherent sense? If you click on the above link – you will find a Buddhist-Marxist Alliance (UK) article highlighting the dishonest honest history of the 14th Dalai Lama and his association with German Nazism! This is what the West is attempting to preserve by high-jacking the reincarnation process – a fictional religious practice. The imagined 15th Dalai lama will be reborn somewhere in China – not New York, Chicago, or Philadelphia!

BJP Salutes Dalai Criminal on Behalf of West!

China: Indian [BJP] Neo-Nazis Salute Criminal Dalai Lama’s “Birthday”! (8.7.2025)

Mao made the remarks after Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi extended greetings to the 14th Dalai Lama on Sunday on the occasion of the latter’s 90th birthday. Other Indian officials attended the “birthday celebrations”.

As a result, China has lodged representations to the Indian side, Mao said at a regular news conference.

“As is known to all, the 14th Dalai Lama is a political exile under the guise of religion, who has long engaged in anti-China and separatist activities and attempted to separate Xizang from China,” Mao said, calling on the Indian side to stop using Xizang-related issues to interfere in China’s internal affairs.

14th Dalai Lama Grasps PRC By the Balls - Where All Life Begins!

China: Dishonest 14th Dalai Lama Starts Jockeying for Capitalist Reincarnation! (3.7.2025)

The reincarnation should follow the process that consists of searches within the Chinese territory, the drawing of lots from a golden urn, and approval by the central government, Mao Ning, a spokeswoman for the ministry, told a daily news conference. The Chinese government implements a policy of freedom of religious belief, and issued Regulations on Religious Affairs and Measures on the Management of the Reincarnation of Living Buddhas to protect the tradition of reincarnation of living Buddhas in accordance with the law, Mao said.

The Buddha's Enlightenment is Secular!

The Buddha & Secular Enlightenment! (3.7.2025)

If this was the case, why did the Buddha reject Brahmanism? Why did the Buddha bite the hand that fed him? Well, he practiced all the available meditative paths, mastered them all, and realised none of them expressed the ultimate truth. He carried-on training in meditation as the Upanishads advised – and saw through all the conditioning of his mind, body, and environment. He gave up caste privilege and all work for money. He knew that this would lead to starvation, homelessness, and nakedness. He resolved these issues by dressing himself in rags found in the charnel grounds (the clothing of dead who were to poor to be cremated), he acquired the skull-cap of a dead person and used it as a begging bowl as he walked from village to village quietly requesting waste-food on a daily basis, and he sat under the foot of a tree when he meditated. The Buddha left society and lived on the forested outskirts of Hindu society. Of course, the Buddha still physically lived in India, and interfaced with Hindu society, but he did this under a completely new contract of understanding.
