The 15th Dalai Lama will reincarnated in China - not the non-Buddhist West!

BMA (UK): Corrupt Lamaism Outside China “Jockeying” for Reincarnation Influence! (12.7.2025)

12/07/2025 Adrian (釋大道)

The religious myth being perpetuated is that this supposedly enlightened being is slowly transform in into light – reflected to us lesser mortals as a “rainbow”. Is this how a Nazi dies? Surely not. As reincarnation does not exist within authentic Buddhism – reincarnation is not rebirth – how can the incorrect path of Lamaism claim to be “Buddhist” – or even unfolding in any coherent sense? If you click on the above link – you will find a Buddhist-Marxist Alliance (UK) article highlighting the dishonest honest history of the 14th Dalai Lama and his association with German Nazism! This is what the West is attempting to preserve by high-jacking the reincarnation process – a fictional religious practice. The imagined 15th Dalai lama will be reborn somewhere in China – not New York, Chicago, or Philadelphia!

The Buddha & Secular Enlightenment! (3.7.2025)

03/07/2025 Adrian (釋大道)

If this was the case, why did the Buddha reject Brahmanism? Why did the Buddha bite the hand that fed him? Well, he practiced all the available meditative paths, mastered them all, and realised none of them expressed the ultimate truth. He carried-on training in meditation as the Upanishads advised – and saw through all the conditioning of his mind, body, and environment. He gave up caste privilege and all work for money. He knew that this would lead to starvation, homelessness, and nakedness. He resolved these issues by dressing himself in rags found in the charnel grounds (the clothing of dead who were to poor to be cremated), he acquired the skull-cap of a dead person and used it as a begging bowl as he walked from village to village quietly requesting waste-food on a daily basis, and he sat under the foot of a tree when he meditated. The Buddha left society and lived on the forested outskirts of Hindu society. Of course, the Buddha still physically lived in India, and interfaced with Hindu society, but he did this under a completely new contract of understanding.

The Mind is a Sliver of the Material Brain!

And a Mind Does Not Understand it is a Mind…(30.6.2025)

30/06/2025 Adrian (釋大道)

Again, another paradox. The brain-mind is the reality it confronts. The brain-mind is the division of reality it must generate to understand itself. Out of this evolves science. Science is the endless division that sustains itself and continues forever and without end. Knowledge emerges that is unstoppable once properly mastered. Science returns full-circle – or at least it seem to return full-circle. Material reality cannot resolve its own division. Herein lies yet another paradox. Material reality is a total reality that cannot be altered from its intrinsic reality. What is “inside” of matter? If religion is understood to be a mistake of human perception – then the answer to this question must be another type of science – not a theological (and childish) delusion. At the moment there is Quantum Theory. Here, science has sliced itself into a different type of sliver. It may be that Qiantum Theory will be discredited in some way – or researched into a pointless oblivion. It may be that Quantum Theory will look inside material reality and discover something “new” – but will it? Can it?

Revolutionary Steering Committee - BMA (UK)

Directive Number 17 – The BMA (UK) Condemns the US-Israeli Military Aggression Against Iran! (22.6.2025)

22/06/2025 Adrian (釋大道)

Iran rejects various modes of cultural expression from manifesting in its society – in exactly the same manner as the West. However, Iran also pursues a left of centre political path which opposes blatant capitalism, and seeks to establish a society premised upon the most sublime teachings found within the Holy Qur’an. It is Iran’s anti-capitalist (and anti-Zionist) attitudes that causes the West to confront this regime – as a means to protect the fascist State of Israel. Just as long as Israeli apartheid, Israeli racism, Israeli fascism, Israeli imperialism and Israeli Zionism are allowed to exist unchallenged – then humanity will not be permitted to evolve to a higher-level of peaceful co-existence.

Ch’an Buddhism – Sit But Do Not Wobble! (5.5.2025)

05/05/2025 Adrian (釋大道)

Nowadays, the situation of Ch’an Buddhism in China is precarious. This is because the Ch’an Path is difficult to follow and is not easy to practice. Of course, there are many people who chant the Buddha’s Name and practice Tantric Buddhism – but there are very few who are truly able to practice Ch’an. Many temples focus on building Buddha Chanting Halls which are popular – with the required practice relatively simple to perform – whilst the establishment of disciplined Ch’an Halls are rare. Even if some temples have established Ch’an Halls, but these places often lack dedicated teachers and practitioners who will sit in meditation for long periods of time – and forget about the body and environment. It should be noted that the inheritance of Buddhism in China is largely due to the talents cultivated in Ch’an Halls.

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”).
