Okinawa: US Sexual Criminality – Women Protest Japanese Government “Silence”! (4.7.2024)

“What’s even more unforgivable is that the Okinawa police didn’t report the cases to the prefectural government. They seem to believe they can act with impunity, a trend of which is becoming more blatant,” she told Xinhua.

Okinawa hosts 70 percent of all U.S. military bases in Japan while accounting for only 0.6 percent of the country’s total land area. Crimes committed by U.S. service members and nonmilitary personnel have been a constant source of grievance for locals.

Tragedies continue to occur decades after massive protests in Japan when in 1995 a 12-year-old girl was raped by three U.S. servicemen. “Okinawans do not know how much similar harm they have to endure for the Japanese government,” a protester lamented.

EmailS: Perception & My Experience with Levitation! (1.7.2024)

01/07/2024 Adrian (釋大道)

Are we victims of the conditions of the moment – which generate in us the ability to see things in a different light that is existentially required by some type of external agency – be it Church or State? I have also experienced transvection – but this has been invariably upon the back of a Chinese (serpentine) dragon that is just as happy to traverse the air – as it is the watery depths! The dragon transportations have been between different spiritual dimensions – rather than within or around my current location. Needless to say, my sponsoring of an “International Brigade of Levitators” was met with a stunned silence at a recent meeting of the Communist Party! A very kind Comrade took me aside and explained that Marx and Engels tended to travel everywhere by boat and train!

UK: Father’s Day – 2024! (16.6.2024)

Today, my two daughters – Mei-An and Kai-Lin – presented me with two wonderful “Father’s Day” cards! The UK follows the UN declaration of “June 16” of each year marking Father’s Day – but the UK has a different day for “Mother’s Day” – which is far older (dating back to the 16th century – “Mothering Sunday” – which is the fourth Sunday after Lent and varies each year in actual date-day.

Chinese culture is ancient and belongs to China and the Chinese people! It does not belong to “White” Americans who want to control and exploit the non-White minds and bodies of the Chinese people! Therefore, ALL legitimate expressions of Chinese culture must be traced to Mainland China – with Mainland China being acknowledged as the creative source of such traditions! Mimicking Chinese culture is akin to the Black and White Minstrels! Those who do this have no place in the genuine study of Chinese cultural modes of expression. Above, you will find one of my published articles provided FREE of charge to all readers with an interest of the subject! This is an American magazine, yes, but I keep a bridge-head open for genuine Chinese cultural expressions!

Calibration Hits “57” So It’s Time To Excuse My Little Self-Indulgence….! (30.5.2024)

30/05/2024 Adrian (釋大道)

My academic (and Ch’an) teacher – Richard Hunn (Upasaka Wen Shu) – lived into his 57th year and was struck-down by cancer far too early (passing in 2006)! I suspect I will last a few years yet – but we never can tell! Still, I rise early to perform my academic and spiritual duties. Although now married with children – I have permission to still wear the black-robe of the Caodong Ch’an School – and to carry the Dust-Whisk of Authority. Of course, the only authority I possess is over my own mind and body. Oh, and I love The Beatles!

Cleaning Bodies & Rubbish from Nepali Mountains!

Nepal: Army Retrieves Two-Bodies – Clears Away Tons of Western Rubbish from Mountains! (30.5.2024)

On May 16, the army teams recovered two other bodies and skeletal remains on the two peaks.

In addition to the bodies, the teams have collected 11,000 kg of waste by Wednesday.

Starting on April 11, the Nepal Army deployed three teams to pick up waste on Mount Qomolangma (8,848 meters), Mount Lhotse (8,516 meters), and Mount Nuptse (7,861 meters) with the support of Nepali Sherpa climbers.

The Nepal Army planned to collect 10 tons of waste and retrieve five bodies from the peaks. This year’s cleaning campaign is scheduled to conclude on June 5.

The Nepal Army began collecting waste on various mountains in 2019, but the mission was suspended in 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
