USSR: Soviet Scientist – Yuri Knórozov – Made a Revolutionary Discovery 70-Years Ago! (29.3.2025)

29/03/2025 Adrian (釋大道)

In other words, by holding the power of the educated working-class mind firmly in check, the bourgeoisie retains its control of the means of production and prevents any genuine Revolutionary forces from gathering and developing within capitalist society – this is precisely “why” institutions such as Birmingham University actively “lie” about Socialism and its power to “free” the working-class mind and body from the yoke and burden of pointless and maniacal profit-making. Meanwhile, whilst demonising Socialism, the bourgeois West quietly “steals” the incredible academic breakthroughs achieved by the Socialist world (plagiarism) – whilst simultaneously obscuring and wiping-out the Socialist source of those breakthroughs.

USSR: Stalin’s [1953] Funeral – Greatest of the 20th Century – and the Resulting Stampede! (27.2.2025)

27/02/2025 Adrian (釋大道)

Since the recent détente of the US and modern Russia – the Russian-language Yandex search-engine has once again become easily available via the Western internet. Since I last regularly accessed the “deep” Russian internet – I have noticed that whereas there was about a 50%-50% distribution of pro and anti Stalin articles – a new narrative has been ordered which portrays Stalin as a mass killer who also achieved one or two great achievements for the Russian people (the new orientation is roughly 25& pro and 75% anti). This is a Western (capitalist), reactionary, Trotskyite, and entirely fascist attitude. Furthermore, it is pseudo-history. Joseph Stalin was working-class (most old Bolsheviks were middle-class) and was Georgian – not Russian (Stalin rejected all forms of nationalism – including Russian). The Soviet Union was a collective of around 15 or 16 countries (depending on era) that acted in Socialist collaboration. The history of the Soviet Union is not the history of Russia – even if Russia was the socio-economic driving force. The point of the 1917 Revolution was a new era in human evolution – a step forward and away from feudalism and capitalism.

Email: Studying Monasticism – BMA (UK) – Replying to Comment! (20.2.2025)

“Your exploration of Christian monasticism as a blueprint for spiritual and communal living is both insightful and thought-provoking. The parallels you draw offer a fresh perspective on how different traditions can inform and enrich one another. Your writing reflects deep contemplation and a genuine appreciation for the wisdom found in monastic practices. Thank you for sharing such a meaningful and well-researched reflection!”

US: Murdered Chinese Woman – Zhuang Menghan [庄梦涵] – Accused US “Boyfriend” of Abuse! (14.2.2025)

14/02/2025 Adrian (釋大道)

A 23-year-old Chinese student who was found dead at her off-campus residence on Feb. 4 had accused her boyfriend of abuse in a social media post, but the post was later deleted.

In the post, the victim said, “This guy abused me… He always acts like he’s innocent. He’s trying to send me to jail and everything he says is 99 percent lies. I thought it was true love, but I was blind.”

The Chinese Consulate General in Los Angeles confirmed her death on Wednesday.

Zhuang Menghan, also known as Emily King, was a fourth-year undergraduate student at the California Institute of the Arts (CalArts). A report from the local coroner revealed that she died from multiple injuries.

Mount Everest: Oxygen, Spoons, Y-Fronts, Mallory & Irvine – My Xmas Address! (24.12.2024)

24/12/2024 Adrian (釋大道)

As the “Nationalists” had taken over China in 1911 – there is absolutely NO negative anti-China tropes at any point in the English narrative – either in the early 1920s – or from the contemporary author, which is incredible when you consider the “Nationalists” destroyed the five-thousand year-old Imperial System! The “Nationalists” evolved away from their original leftwing base (under Sun Yatsen) – and morphed into a pro-Japanese, and pro-capitalist entity – chopping-off the heads of thousands who disagreed. Tibet was part of China then as of now – but Mallory discusses only the Office of the Dalai Lama being the Authorities the British had to negotiate with (whilst in reality this Office continuously liaised with Beijing). When British explorers visited Buddhist monasteries without permission from Lhasa – the Dalai Lama (the 13th I believe) would summon the offending Abbot (Head Monk) to Lhasa to have his eyes plucked-out using the old trusty “Ceremonial Spoon” (first offense) in private. If he persisted in his criminal behaviour (defined as “promiscuous compassion”) – he would be “skinned alive” (second offence) in public – with his dead body NOT hacked-up and fed to the vultures.

Disability History Month: British Museum – Eight Histories of Disabled People in Ancient Egypt! (18.12.2024)

18/12/2024 Adrian (釋大道)

Disabled people have always been present and active in society. Many specialists and experts around the world have started to investigate representations and lived experiences of disability and care in the past through archaeology and museum collections. The objects and remains highlighted here demonstrate some of the stories we are uncovering and hint at the discoveries that might be made in the future. We hope that these stories will demonstrate to everyone that disabled people have always existed and been part of the story of humanity, and empower disabled people to see themselves in history, and to continue making it, thousands of years into the future.
