Chinese Stone from Mount Emei Found in Switzerland! (25.10.2025)

25/10/2025 Adrian (釋大道)

According to reports, on Sept. 29, 2014, a 2.6-metric-ton conglomerate rock from Mount Rigi was installed at the Golden Summit of Mount Emei. In return, on July 31, 2015, an 8-metric-ton basalt rock from Mount Emei was set up at Rigi’s summit, Rigi Kulm.

According to the Leshan municipal government website, Emei and Rigi officially became sister mountains in 2009. The two sides agreed to exchange rocks to be placed at both summits as symbols of friendship.

The Mount Emei stone is a basalt rock formed around 260 million years ago. It is 2.6 meters tall, 1.5 metres wide, 1.5 metres thick at its deepest point, and weighs about 8.05 metric tons. (Gong Weiwei)

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”.

UK: The 2001 Internet Possossed Genuine Freedom of Speech – Whilst the PLA Prepared to Cut the Head & Tale off the Snake! (20.6.2025)

20/06/2025 Adrian (釋大道)

In the post-911 hysteria (where the US continued with its delusional position that American lives are worth more than any other lives) I was writing on the British Born Chinese Forum – owned and run by the former UK Social Worker – Steve Lam. I had previously posted for a time on the “Dimsum” Forum run by a Trotskyite named “Sarah Yeh” – (until we had a “disagreement”) – both bourgeois individuals. I posted under my Chinese name of “Heng Yu” (恒豫) – a Caodong gongfu lineage name used by my Chinese relatives on a daily basis (pronounced “Hung Yaw” in Cantonese). Now, at around this time (2001) I was introduced to a very well-respected Hakka-Chinese man in London’s Chinatown – named Jabez Lam. He was left-wing, a Socialist and worked for the rights of ordinary Chinese restaurant-workers (he had even appeared on Channel 4 regarding Mainland Chinese and the perceived discrimination they suffer in the UK). I met him a few times in Gerrard Street (he knew of and respected Master Chan Tin Sang) and talked with him over the telephone many times regarding what he knew about prominent members of the British-born Chinese community – and there was some tasty morsels. So tasty, in fact, that all the problems I was having with one or two ethnic Chinese individuals in the UK (primarily online – as they lacked the bollocks to meet me in my weekly gongfu class) – just melted away when they realised I know about the skeletons in their cupboards.

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”).

China: Ma Baoguo [马保国] – Latest Hot Dance in Nightclubs🤣! (16.12.2024)

16/12/2024 Adrian (釋大道)

I previously wrote about “The Antics of ‘Master’ Ma Baoguo (马保国)!” on our family martial arts blog! When I first saw his comic movement – I thought he was the “Chinese” Charlie Chaplin! Of course, at the peak of his income, Mr Ma could generate alot of income – trading-off the idea that he was a “Qigong Master”! Even the Chinese government has been forced to intercede on the grounds that this lovable fool might be doing himself “harm” will all the strange and exotic things he does for publicity. Why on earth a man well into his 60s would voluntarily attend a stage in a bustling Nightclub is beyond me! Whatever the reason9s) – his comic genius is once again on full display!

Ch’an Dao: Confucian Lineage! (8.11.2024)

08/11/2024 Adrian (釋大道)

Of course, the modern world is a very different place to the ancient (feudal) world from which Confucius lived, but nevertheless, so much of modern Chinese culture is premised on just this type of social organisation and spiritual coordination. This is true even when gongfu Styles are accessed through “money” – rather than through “virtue”. This attitude of “Respect” and “Harmony” has permeated the culture of Korea, Japan, and Okinawa – with the latter once being a distant part of the Chinese Empire. By issuing his “Hamon” – Sensei Higaonna is proving that his Style of Goju Ryu Karate-Do is “Chinese” in origination – as indeed it is (premised upon the White Crane gongfu of Fujian province).
