Laos: Buddhist-Socialist Republic – Breaking Barriers – Transforming Immunization – Promoting Greater Gender Equality! (1.5.2025)

Khamsy’s story is common among rural communities and echo the new study’s stark statistic: 60 per cent of interviewed female caregivers reported a lack confidence in vaccine decisions, often deferring to husbands or elders. While in some cases mothers do lead vaccination decisions, particularly for routine immunization and HPV vaccines for girls, men in the family frequently hold the final authority, including the power to veto decisions. They also tend to have greater influence over vaccination choices for boys than mothers do. Regardless of who holds influence, the study highlights that adolescents generally have limited agency in making vaccination decisions, which are instead made primarily by parents and are often shaped by misinformation.

Russia: Anti-Fascist Conference Held in Moscow! (30.4.2025)

He recalled that the West claims that the USSR and the Third Reich were equally responsible for starting the Second World War, deliberately downplays the role of the Red Army in defeating Nazi Germany and militarist Japan, creates a myth of Soviet occupation of Eastern European countries, and actively manufactures other lies for its own benefit. This is done in order to cast a shadow over Russia today.

Email: “Nazis Kill Buddhists” – Plucking the Petals of the Lotus Library! (30.4.2025)

30/04/2025 Adrian (釋大道)

Finally, I showed your comments to the ethnic Buddhists I know living in the Eastern States of Russia – they “laughed” and declared the so-called “Lotus Library” a thinly disguised (Eurocentric) project designed to spread a perverted (Christianised) version of Buddhism whilst perpetuating a false-Dhamma not seen since the days of Devadatta! Many of these Russian “Buddhists” have fought in the war against Ukrainian Neo-Nazism – or will be shortly joining the Russian Army to do so. The lesson you have obviously missed is that “Nazis Kill Buddhists” (the Hitlerites did this during WWII) – and Buddhist Suttas exist discussing how a soldier can practice the Dhamma even during times of war. Now, if you would be so kind as to remove my email address from your data-base – I can get on with teaching authentic Buddhism in peace.

I suspect the ancient Greeks encountered Buddhist monasticism when visiting India (such as Pythagoras), learned the Buddhist method of “looking within”, and then adjusted the technique as a means to “prove” the efficacy of their particular philosophical perspectives (the work of Plotinus may be taken as an example of this endeavour). Later, via the Greeks, a community of Jews (in Qumran) started sitting in meditation to personally attain a “glimpse of Yahweh” – a practice that eventually spread to the reformed Jewish sect of “Christianity” – whose adherents started to meditate whilst sat in the caves found in the Egyptian Desert (this type of Christianity spread to Britain – hundreds of years prior to Catholicism – becoming “Celtic Christianity”).

I also remember a “93” double-decker bus in Dartmouth. Why? well, in Sutton – where we live – the “93” TFL bus begins in Priory Road (travelling to Putney Bridge) – we used to live in Priory Road from 1998-2004. We now live one or two streets away – but still near this bus route. This bus travels via Wimbledon Common – near to where the Buddhapadipa Buddhist Temple is located. Believe it or not – there is a Buddhist Temple near Honiton in Devon (Upottery) – the Hartridge Buddhist Monastery. We have visited this place many years ago – and might well visit again sometime soon.

That looks on tempests and is never shaken;
It is the star to every wand’ring bark,
8Whose worth’s unknown, although his height be taken.
Love’s not Time’s fool, though rosy lips and cheeks
Within his bending sickle’s compass come;
Love alters not with his brief hours and weeks,
12But bears it out even to the edge of doom.
If this be error, and upon me proved,
