Sutton Cemetery - Qingming 2025!

UK: Qingming (清明) [2025] – “Sweeping & Cleaning the Grave” of the Chinese Ancestors! (5.4.2025)

At both times of the year the graves are repaired and made new – whilst one or two of the favourite things are provided – such as a glass of brandy and a cigarette. Some Chinese families – although not ours – make paper clothing which is burnt at the graveside in Autumn – alongside “Spirit Money” – or pretend banknotes, etc. Others take real food which is placed on a table in hygienic containers – offered as an oblation – and consumed later. Our two daughters used clothes and cleaning sprays to remove the dirt and shine the stone exterior of the graves. The bright flowers are then cut to fit into the holders. We often bring a flag of China and Buddhist pictures and statues. Today, I also carried a Ch’an Dao Martial Arts Association badge and a pair of Nunchaku. We lit six incense-sticks – three for each grave – and bowed-down three-tips (clapping the hands three-times). We have been performing these rituals since the early 1990s in the UK.

Ch’an Dao: Confucian Lineage! (8.11.2024)

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).

Ch’an Dao: Sensei Higaonna Morio Issues “Expulsion” Order! (6.11.2024)

Indeed, the “White” offender even stated he “should learn about democracy” – when he politely requested to be allowed back into the family organisation he had slowly built-up over many decades. As he believes this is racially motivated – Higaonna Sensei recently visited Russia where he was treated with the upmost respect! He has aligned himself with Russia against Ukraine – rejecting the Western-backed Neo-Nazism! These Western and Japanese fascists have now been permanently expelled from Higaonna’s lineage.

The Clan Gibson of Sutton! (9.11.2023)

Our branch of the Gibson family is recorded as having been ‘rope-makers’ and are believed to have originally migrated out of Scotland hundreds of years ago – and to have ‘walked’ down through England until they eventually settled in East London. This is a journey that took decades and involved small clusters settling here and there. Featured is out Scottish Tartan – but as ‘Gibson’ is of Viking heritage – the Vikings settled in both England and Scotland at different times and during the centuries prior to the Norman Conquest of 1066 CE. As the Normans were Vikings who had settled in France – this adds yet another level of transmission. The ‘Son of Gibb’ was thought to have been a mighty Viking warrior!

Neo-Nazi Ukraine: Summer Solstice – But NOT What the “Druids” Had in Mind! (23.6.2023)

Notice the Hitlerite Banner of the “Russian Volunteer Corps” – this belongs to the “White Supremacist” – Denis Nikitin! Although Hitler demonised the Jews (and killed millions) – there were still a small number of Jews who joined his SS and SA and were willing to fight for him! Jews even served as “Guards” in Hitler’s Concentration Camps! This might explain why “Zionist” Jews from Israel now support Neo-Nazi Ukraine! Of course, the Western media ignore all this symbology in a disgusting appeasement of Neo-Nazism and the ideology of Adolf Hitler!
