Haytor Neidan Self-Cultivation!

Ch’an Dao Blog Article – Neidan As We Get Older! (18.4.2025)

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”).

Bashplemi Tablet - Georgia

UK: Georgia’s Undeciphered “Bashplemi Tablet”! (10.4.2025)

The next idea is that it might be a votive offering created as an act of worship – then thrown into a lake – to placate some type of pre-Christian deity. Of course, Georgia is not a Celtic area – with the (non-Celtic) Pagan Vikings not arriving until in the region until around the 8th-9th century CE (around four centuries after the arrival of Christianity). The problem with this idea is that if the people of Georgia were advanced enough to read, write and technologically produce such a stone tablet (using at least two-types of drill) – why go through all this effort just to throw the finished product into a local body of water? Perhaps the tablet was dropped into the lake by mistake. Either way, the tablet contains 60 discernible characters – 21 of which are unique – whilst 39 are repeated.

Dubious Examples of "Christianity"!

St Albans: Consciousness Does Not Exist – and Dubious Examples of “Christianity”! (4.4.2025)

The Church suppresses and disempowers the working class in every narrative it constructs. The Workers are viewed as the scum of the earth by the middle class that runs most of the UK’s institutions. The Church today remains silent as the capitalist countries it’s supports brings the world once again to the brink of war. The Church is the devil incarnate which expresses itself through the self-serving literature it’s conspired to print and circulate. The Church calls this lie “freedom of expression”. Of course, it is only freedom of its own expression. Perhaps the biggest joke is that those without theological degrees are considered “unqualified” to see all this! Oh dear, no working 90 minutes a-week (on Sunday morning if the CofE priest can muster a congregation) with a free house and income tax exemption for me, then! Abolish this subterfuge – and the Workers will be one level nearer freedom.

Reaction & Religion Go Hand in Hand!

UK: The Kind Idiocy of Mary Augusta Ward [1851-1920]! (24.3.2025)

It is incredible that someone such as Bishop Smith thinks that Mary Ward – the co-founder of the “National Women’s Anti-Suffrage League” – is a person worthy of remembering when she dedicated her life to preventing society from developing – a process which required the lifting of the religious ignorance that had dominated the West for over a thousand years. Furthermore, the White, middle-class and thoroughly “male” interpretation of Christianity Bishop Smith and Ward seem to be peddling has virtually nothing to do with the teachings of Jesus Christ – and has more in common with the ramblings of St Paul – a fantasist who never met Jesus. The situation is probably more confusing than even this – as many of the letters ascribed to Paul – particularly the misogynistic editions – are thought to be forgeries.

Deconstructing George Orwell!

BMA (UK) – Giving Orwell a Kicking! (5.3.2025)

I have a number of hobbies – Chinese roundel technology, classical Greek Philosophy, and giving George Orwell a good kicking any time I am given the opportunity. Of course, there are other pastimes – but Orwell is a blight on all our children – as his poorly written books are taught to every generation of British school child as a means of inoculating them against the positive study of Scientific Socialism. Orwell is a bourgeois degenerate in every conceivable way. Indeed, the common mess seen in Burma at the moment is in-part due to people like Orwell – who served as a British Police Officer in that colony! I am critiquing the work of an English Churchman – Bishop Alan Smith of St Albans – who is in many ways sympathetic to the plight of worker – but always in a qualified manner. Typical of CofE duplicity – there is always a reluctance to completely commit.

Dangers of Biblical Literalism!

Email: Noah’s Ark Encounter Exhibit – Kentucky! (21.2.2025)

The dinosaurs are thrown-out by devout believers – and this explains “why” dinosaurs are now extinct. It is a strong argument that Trump wants to use to reform the schooling-system in the US – and then force this ideology onto the world at large. A mirror site will be built in Kyiv – where a wax-works of Zelensky will be placed prior to visitors throwing stones at the exhibit – until the wax-works is tossed over the side – into the “firmament”. Sounds good! Remember, the Americans have killed millions around the world (including within the Americas) to spread this nonsense around the world!
