UK: Email – Enquiry About Ram Dass – My Answer! (26.9.2026)

As a capitalist he was opposed to Socialism. Meanwhile, “White” bourgeois individuals felt warm and fluffy when they experienced his romanticised stories about India (he even met the Nazi-educated Dalai Lama – saying nothing about his history). Laughably, he thought the pathetic Indian Army had spiritually “beaten” the Chinese PLA in 1962 – despite being physically crushed – as Mao drove on to Delhi (feeding the starving Indians they encountered on the way). If you want to see the latest incarnation of Ram Dass (pun intended) involving (White) Americans pretending to transcend material reality in exchange for money – please access “ramdass.org”. Ironically, many people who receive a “contact high” by listening to the lectures of Ram Dass – upload these lectures to the internet – giving free access to millions. Finally, the genuine Indian Guru – Neem Karoli Baba – taught everyone for “free”. That is a genuine spiritual reality. What Ram Dass and his supporters did to this pristine teaching is nothing less than a travesty and probably a crime in some countries (fraud). All this is the type of the iceberg regarding Ram Dass-related corruption and deception.

Six Die Worhipping Tree Branches at Tribal Karam Festival!

India: Tree-Worship Remains Statistically the Most Dangerous Religion in Bharat!

Five of the deaths were reported in Bokaya village and the other in Nani Jharia hamlet. Jharkhand celebrated Karam, one of the biggest tribal festivals after Sarhul, on Tuesday.

The festival concludes with the immersion of a branch of Karam tree that was worshipped during the festival. Palamu Superintendent of Police Kapil Choudhary said an eight-year-old boy had drifted deep into the Koel river during the immersion ceremony in Bokaya village.

Four people jumped in to rescue him, and all of them drowned, he said. The bodies have been fished out of the river and sent for post-mortem, he added.

The deceased have been identified as Amit Kumar Thakur (22), Nitish Kumar Singh (18), Vishal Paswan (16), Raja Singh (12) and Hemant Kumar Singh (8).

In Nani Jharia village, 16-year-old Simpi Kumari drowned after she slipped and fell into a pond during an immersion ceremony there.

UK: Email – What Do I Think About the Balathal Skeleton? (22.9.2026)

22/09/2026 Adrian (釋大道)

Although 700 BCE is touted around the internet – the remains could be as late as the 4th century CE (well within the date for Yoga). The site is not Indian – the skeleton is Indian. My own view is that if this is a holy man – we are probably talking about the disciples of the Buddha who dwelled at the base of trees – a “root-dweller” no-less. Of course, this is just speculation on my part and I am running with the “meditating in isolation” angle. There is absolutely no evidence for the “holy man” interpretation except for the conveniently positioned hands and fingers (the academic authors of the second paper go out of their way to insert an elaborate Hindu origin for this). This seems unprofessional to me. There is no surrounding (qualifying) evidence for the holy man hypothesis. What should usually happen is that a note would be added that draws the reader’s attention to the fact that these remains, when viewed in a certain light, possess a passing similarity to certain well-known religious postures found within the practices of a number of religious and spiritual paths. Whatever the case, more evidence is needed and none has been forthcoming (these are not “new” digs).

BMA (UK): India – Deconstructing the Balathal “Samadhi” Skeletal Remains! (21.9.2026)

Such hate-filled ignorance is the modus operandi of the Hindutva ideologue. Christianity was in India long before the British came. In Pakistan – formerly North India – the Muslims preserve a tomb said to be that of Jesus Christ (who supposedly lived-out his life in India following the survival of his crucifixion). Then there is the story of St Thomas who is believed to have been martyred whilst praying in a cave in Tamil Nadu. Even if neither of these stories are true – Christianity probably arrived in India long before it arrived in England. The Buddha, of course, was “Indian” and born a high caste Hindu (Kshatriya). Buddhists are reformed Hindus and were not foreign (or violent) invaders (Marx refers to Buddhists as practicing “rational Brahmanism”). Muslims did invade a “Buddhist” India, and did use violence against the Buddhists who refused to fight back. Only the followers of Brahma took to the field before being defeated. Yes – followers of Brahma still existed in Buddhist India – being a manifestation of Buddhist tolerance.

Russia: II [2025] International Anti-Fascist Forum! (1.9.2026)

01/09/2026 Adrian (釋大道)

It is peculiar that the “DPRK” (North Korea) is not on this list – considering how close Russia and Pyongyang actually are. I think North Korean troops may have been fighting and dying in Kursk around this time. Furthermore, the UK is missing off this list – but there were delegates from the “New Communist Party”. A number of these countries, at one time or other, possessed Communist entities that perpetuated the Trotskyite view that Russia was “imperialist” – a position I reject. I suspect that this situation emerges from there being a number of competing Communist entities within each sovereign geographical boundary. There are some that support – and some that oppose – Russia. But Russia must be supported once the fog of inverted thinking and subjectivism is lifted. Finally, it is an important observation that Communist statues pursue the task of inspiring the working-class by visually stimulating the Bolshevik dialectic.

A Battle Over Memorial to British Empire Heroes

Pakistan: Battle to Relocate [1895] British Empire Military Monument! (1.9.2026)

British Imperialism in India has a long and bloody history. British business took over India and extracted trillions from its raw material and wealth – guaranteeing modern India’s impoverished situation – and modern Britain’s first-world status. To achieve this – the British government established the “East India Company” and the (private) “British Indian Army” (the latter comprised of ex-British Army Officers and NCOs and locally recruited ethnic Indians). This force was supplemented by the regular British Army (recruited in the UK from the working-class slums). Britain shamefully interfered in internal Indian politics and that is exactly why this situation arose in 1895. Encouraging assassinations and then stage-managing the transition of power was the playbook. The British would literally cause a conflict and then take umbrage that violence had ensued against them. This manufactured “victimhood” is exactly what the US practices today to justify its endless military attacks. In 1895, the tribal people of North-West India (Pakistan today) were once again caught daring to manifest self-determination – and the British Raj despatched 400 British Indian troops (mostly Sikhs and Kashmiris) Officered by 5 (White) British Officers to garrison the fort at Chitral. Around 3000 Pathans (and their allies) faced-off with just over 400 British troops in a seige which lasted six-weeks (3rd March-20th April 1895) – which ended with the arrival of a British Relief Column on April 20th – putting an end to the entire affair (the two Relief Columns lost over 400 killed and around 200 wounded in the fighting outside and around the fort). The Pathans lost around 500 men (probably many more) and the British in the besieged fort lost around 42 (dead) and 62 (wounded).
