Email: What Are My Views About Qiu Miaolin (邱妙津) [1969-1995]? (23.1.2026)

23/01/2026 Adrian (釋大道)

I would argue that non-White cultures (not crushed by Eurocentric imperialism) possess a scale of sexual and gender manifestation that is far more fluid than that found in th West. Much more is tolerated with far less reactionary resistsnce. Married Chinese men can be effeminate – just as married Chinese women can be masculine – it is not that big a deal in the everyday world of Chinese existence. Teenagers naturally discover their sexuality and identity without the interference of the State define this or punishing that – so what exactly was Qiu Miaolin rebelling against? Was it the Nationalist domination of Taiwan? Was it the fascist (patriarchal) reality of Kuomintang (KMT) reality? Was it the obvious US domination of her Chinese culture? Was it the left-over influence of the Imperial Japanese presence on the island? I note that in the Chinese-language assessments of Qiu Miaolin – the “gay” Japanese fascist – Yukio Mishima is mentioned. After WWII, Mishima propagated a male gay cult that practiced homo-erotic martial arts whilst dreaming of over-throwing the US-dominated government and returning Japan to its feudal greatness (he would lead a failed military uprising in the early 1970s – before committing ritual suicide). Mishima, of course, was an anti-China racist – so why admire him? I am not a woman and am not a lesbian – so I advise the reader to research freely and to think for themselves.

UN: Members Denounce US Attack on Venezuela! (12.1.2026)

12/01/2026 Adrian (釋大道)

This being the case, why does the UN – and its constituent members – suddenly find it so unpalatable when the US behaves like the rogue Zionist regime it finances? Whilst the US denies free healthcare to its own citizens – the US also finances completely free healthcare for every Israeli citizen (this is also true for South Korea, Taiwan and Japan – key US players in the region). Given that the US has imported Neo-Nazism into Ukraine and fought a proxy-war since 2014 – why shouldn’t Trump act in this lawless manner toward Venezuela? What political or military mechanism is there to stop him? None. Obama destroy a Socialist Libya, installed the Maidan Junta in Kyiv, and began the destruction of Syria. Obama was one of the worst US warmongers – but is fondly remembered for a second-rate health system and free mobile phones. You see my point. Free health, of course, is one of the main principles of any Socialist System, and this fact demonstrates the cynical nature of US foreign policy around the world.

UK: Is Goju Ryu Karate-Do Linked to the Chinese Book of Change? (29.12.2025)

29/12/2025 Adrian (釋大道)

Indeed, those scholars who developed the Commentarial material that seeks to explain the Book of Change (Yijing) – often attempt to superimpose the ancient “hard” and “soft” with the concept of “yang” and “yin” – although the amorphous nature of this schematic means that one quantity is continuously exchanged for the other. When lecturing in China – this often becomes an interesting and contentious point of discussion. Many are unaware that the yin-yang ideal is not that old as it is presented as all conquering in many Chinese-language texts. Whatever the case, I keep in contact with a number of Goju Ryu practitioners – as this is a style of fighting I explored in my youth. I still assist practitioners of this style with their historical research – which is often of a linguistic nature. Linked above is a blog article uploaded onto our Ch’an Dao Blog.

Ryukyu: 1629 Ming Dynasty Edict Proves Okinawa Part of China! (17.12.2025)

17/12/2025 Adrian (釋大道)

The Okinawan King had instigated Chinese language as the official means of communication, Chinese Confucianism as State-creed, Chinese Buddhism as a spiritual practice, and Chinese Daoism as a health system. Okinawa militarily aligned itself with China’s policies and the Okinawan people practiced Chinese martial arts via the instruction of visiting Masters. Meanwhile, Okinawans were encouraged to visit Fujian province and learn the Chinese culture on offer – including martial arts (the origin of Goju Ryu Karate-Do). The Japanese invaded Okinawa in 1629 – but could only establish a limited Embassy. In 1879, the Imperial Japanese Empire invaded Okinawa and forcibly expelled any and all Chinese individuals and influences. Following a horrific experience during WWII – Japan today views the Okinawans as being both “sub-human” and “non-Japanese” – this is why US Military Bases are stationed on Okinawa (US soldiers often rape Okinawan school girls – and it is treated as a joke in Japan and the US). Okinawa should return to China.

China: Remembering the Imperial Japanese “Mukden Concentration Camp” [Auschwitz of the East]! (4.12.2025)

04/12/2025 Adrian (釋大道)

I was talking with an academic collegaue in North-East China who asked me to research Russian language sources covering the Imperial Japanese POW Camp established at Mukden. Below is some basic data – but I know Red Aemy soldiers were dissected alive and used in all kinds of experiments. These Allied POWs were transferred to the Japanese after being captured by the Nazi Germans in the USSR between 1941-1944 (the Soviet Red Army liberated the area during late 1945). After the war – we in the UK were not told about this war crime – despite the USSR being our loyal Ally. Japan got away with it due to the US colonising a defeated Japan and using it a fascistic bulwark against a Socialist China. This is where prisoners from all backgrounds – the Chinese suffered terribly – were “Reversed Punched” [Gyaku Zuki] to death (by Japanese Karate practitioners) – whilst tied to posts. As a means to side-line Chinese culture in the West – the US then spread Karate all over Europe and the Americas – as if it were a good thing.

China: Increase in Japanese Sexual & Racial Crime Threat to Chinese Safety! (27.11.2025)

27/11/2025 Adrian (釋大道)

From 2021 to 2024, the number of criminal cases suspected of violating Japan’s penal code rose from 568,000 to 738,000. Serious violent crimes — including abduction, arson, homicide, robbery, rape and sexual assault — had increased from 8,821 cases to 14,614, marking a surge of about 65.7 percent, the embassy said in a notice published on its official WeChat account.

Since July, the number of requests for assistance received by Chinese diplomatic missions regarding discrimination-related incidents has risen significantly, with a notable spike reported in November. In recent days, multiple Chinese nationals living in Japan have reported being subjected to unprovoked verbal abuse or physical assault, resulting in injuries, according to the embassy.
