BMA (UK): Secular Monasticism! (27.4.2024)

27/04/2024 Adrian (釋大道)

Of course, the Western monastic traditions can possess similar parallels – but this should negate the history or purpose of slavish-types of religion. Conventional religion is not the answer – as invariably this developed within a primitive tribal and/or feudalistic environment. Traditionally, conventional religion was designed to maintain a certain hierarchy and status quo with no change from generation to generation. However, once the means of production have changed hands and religion has been transformed into a Revolutionary vehicle – then certain aspect of religious practice might be useful for freeing the working class from oppression!

At 10:40 a.m., Kong Changsheng, chairman of the Henan Committee of the Chinese People’s Political Consultative Conference, announced the conclusion of the Memorial Ceremony, which was witnessed by about 5,000 attendees, including representatives from all walks of life and reporters from nearly 100 media organizations.

The grand Memorial is not only a cultural event, but also a platform for cooperation and exchanges aimed at promoting mutually beneficial development. This year’s ceremony was held alongside an event for business negotiation and investment promotion, through which a number of project agreements were signed.

It has been a tradition in China since the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period (770-221 BC) to worship the Yellow Emperor.

In 2008, the Memorial Ceremony was inscribed onto the national list of intangible cultural heritage of China.

World Insights: NATO’s Meddling in Asia-Pacific Theatre – Threatens Regional Peace! (11.4.2024)

The United States is the behind-the-scenes instigator of NATO’s outreach into the Asia-Pacific.

“Exporting that malicious poison to Asia would be akin to Asia welcoming the plague upon itself,” said former Australian Prime Minister Paul Keating, referring to NATO’s expansion into the Asia-Pacific.

HONG KONG, April 11 (Xinhua) — The North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO), now in its 75th year of existence, has outlived its mandate and is clinging to life by fanning flames beyond its scope.

On April 4, 1949, led by the United States, 10 European countries plus Canada signed the North Atlantic Treaty in response to the so-called “threat posed by the Soviet Union.”

After the Soviet Union disintegrated in the 1990s, however, the military bloc did not dissolve and in reverse, extended its sinister grasp beyond its treaty-defined geographical scope eastwards voraciously, expanding its membership to 32 today. In recent years, the Asia-Pacific region has been its new prey.

Analysts warned that in its attempt to interfere in the Asia-Pacific, NATO is exporting “malicious poison to Asia,” posing a threat to regional security and stability, and hindering the region’s development.
