tarzan weissmuller elephant graveyard

UK: Sultanas & Lemons – Corbyn & Co Head to the Elephant’s Graveyard! (21.9.2025)

I have seen this cycle of political abuse unfold in the UK liberal democratic system so many times – that I am beginning to think that there must be an elephant’s graveyard somewhere near Westminster where old, wounded, or decrepit far-left leaders go to die. Perhaps Johnny Weissmuller’s “Tarzan” will follow one of them into that special grove – just over the rainbow bridge – where all the Red Ivory will be neatly stacked. Having lived as long as I have, I watch the faces of the innocent youth with sympathy as they discover (for the first-time) how UK political corruption works. Seeing the sorrow and disappointment on their fresh-faces is heart-wrenching to say the least. As a person with experience – all I can tell them is to a) get use to betrayal, and b) learn to hold the line in the face of adversity. Giving them undue comfort now – would prove disempowering for them in the future. In the future they must be stronger than they are now to face the challenges they will have to face – when my generation is gone.

Youths Against Corrupt Lead the Protests!

Nepal: Social Media Ban Leads to Mass Protests! (8.9.2025)

The Nepalese government (the Social Democratic Nepali Congress) began blocking multiple US social media platforms not registered in the country last week, including Facebook, X, and YouTube. The government stated that US social media users create fake identities to spread hate speech, fake news, and commit fraud (as well as other crimes) on these US platforms – undermining the safety and independence of the country. Access will be restored if these US-owned platforms recognise Nepali State sovereignty and comply Nepal State Law.

The notice also calls for a crackdown on misconduct such as illegal online consultations, sexually suggestive content disguised as health education, fabricated narratives promoting products and the impersonation of licensed physicians.

Local authorities have been instructed to guide platforms in improving oversight and to direct hospitals to monitor the conduct of medical workers while online, with penalties for violations. Market regulators will investigate illegal advertising activities.

At a recent news conference, Hu Qiangqiang, a spokesman for the National Health Commission, said common violations by doctors who are also influencers include directing followers to offline services, offering illegal online consultations, selling products via livestreams and prescribing overpriced medications.

Shaolin Latest: Shi Yongxin’s Brother [Liu Yingbiao] of Shaolin Painting & Calligraphy Institute – “Missing”! (2.8.2025)

The reputation of the former Head Monk of the famous Shaolin Temple – Shi Yongxin – literally collapsed overnight! The trouble he has caused has not been limited only to himself! After Shi Yongxin got into trouble, his brother – Liu Yingbiao – quite literally disappeared from public view – with the media reporting that he has gone “missing”.

China: Shaolin Temple [少林寺] Quickly Appoints New Head Monk! (30.7.2025)

Years ago, when I first accessed the internet, I used to argue with young Americans (and some UK and EU people) that the gongfu they were learning for vast amounts of money in China and the West – was not real and product of youth-orientated (Western-derived) gymnastics. They were so brain-washed they thought the lay-men who taught them in robes were real Shaolin monks! Furthermore, they said that our gongfu was “old fashioned” and “out of date”! Many of the ethnic Chinese “teachers” were greedy and money-orientated – seeing spirituality as “weak”. I stopped arguing as I did not want to be seen as attacking the CPC – which I would never do. In return, I was asked to appear on Chinese TV and explain my connection to China – but I politely refused. The last thing I wanted was further exposure and hundreds of people asking for instruction. It is important to live humbly and simply – and not for show. It is best to disappear and not be seen. If in doubt, keep out of sight.

China: Shaolin Head Monk – Shi Yongxin – Under Investigation for Alleged Criminal Offenses! (28.7.2025)

In Japan, a Buddhist monk or nun can get married, produce children, eat meat, and drink alcohol. In other words, these people are lay-people in robes – but are practicing dishonesty. A group of Chinese Ch’an monks had been following the Vinaya Discipline when they travelled to Japan to spread the Ch’an Dharma – but returned with Japanese wives and children – and wearing lay-clothing – eating meat and drinking alcohol. In front of Xu Yun – these “monks” petitioned the post-1949 government of China to permanently abolish the Ch’an requirement for monks and nuns to be celibate and vegetarian. Xu Yun is said to have loudly slapped the table – stating that the Chinese government should do the exact opposite – that is, integrate the Vinaya Discipline into the fabric of China’s secular law. If a man or woman wants to be an ordained Buddhist monk or nun, then it should be a legal requirement – punishable by secular law – if they fail to uphold the rules and regulations of the lifestyle they have chosen to follow. Being a Buddhist monastic is a “job” that requires a strict form of lifestyle.
