Adrian the Monk - 2025

Report: Ghost Hunting in North Devon! (29.8.2025)

With most of the lights off by 11pm, I sat on my religious chair (the Church dates back to the 14th century – and so does the chair). I cleared my mind and immersed myself into the ancient nature of the stone-work. The stone was cool to the touch – I went bare-foot to ground myself – and felt the calm structure of the place. No fear, no deception, and nothing to worry about, Although I neither support or oppose theology – I sensed the spiritual feel that all the attendees developed and projected into rge physical structure of the place. In many places in the UK, the Christians deliberately built their Churches on already existing Pagan sites of ancient spirituality – with nothing to do with a Christian god. The mistake that Christians make is that their own mind creates the religion they believe in – but they mistakenly believe that their religion exists “outside” their heads, independent of the mind that generates it. The perception is inverted and the wrong way around.

Hedgehog Eating & Drinking!

Sutton: Hedgehog Asks for Water During Heat-Wave! (14.7.2025)

When I lived in Devon during my youth – hedgehogs used to be everywhere. We used to see them all the time and most gardens possessed at least one resident hedgehog. I know some lived very long and grew to surprising sizes. The last time I saw a hedgehog in Sutton was probably around 2008 in the back garden of the then house (in Westfield Road) I lived-in – but I have not seen one in the wild since then. The only time we have seen hedgehogs locally – has been in special areas of nature conservation but in a sense – these are not truly wild in the unmanaged sense. I am not sure why we do not see so many wild hedgehog in the Sutton area – perhaps their populations are low – or they choose to hide for some reason. We hope their numbers improve and remember to give them water and cat-food – or similar!

St Albans Abbey: Clock-Tower & Exterior Structure! (29.5.2024)

Ordinary peasants and aristocracy would get out of bed in the morning, work, eat, rest and go to bed at night according to the dictates of the Roman Catholic Church – the monasteries of which usually followed the Rule of St Benedict – or some similar Rule. Ordinary people did not have to learn how to tell the time – as the monastic orders told them what to do and when to d it. Following the “Dissolution” – secular society had to build their own clocks and learn to tell the time for themselves. This is how the measuring of “time” was rescued from the control of the Church. After 1539 – time no longer served God – but rather the lay-society that paid for and possessed the technical skills to construct the clocks! The policies of King Henry VIII – as mad as he may or may not have been (he had around 70,000 men and women hanged during his reign) – ushered the “modern” Britain that we now live within. I doubt, however, that Henry would have envisioned the end of absolute monarchy or the trivialising of the Church!

Neo-Nazi Ukraine: Explosions Over Kyiv! (19.4.2023)

The night sky has bean lit up over Kyiv – and it doesn’t seem to be anything to do with Russia! If it is – nobody is talking! Apparently, Zelensky posted on social media that that he thought an air raid was taking place – but quickly deleted the post when it became clear no such action had taken place! The next element of mass hysteria is that this might be a NASA satellite falling to Earth!

Zhang Renquan (张仁全) – How the ‘Lingling’ (灵灵) Sect Ruined My Life! (15.4.2019) 

To be honest, we rural people are actually most afraid of being sick or of suffering accident or injury! Listening to the supposedly real-life examples of so many believers who we were told kept their families safe through joining this group – it all seemed too good to be true! This woman stared us straight in the eye when she spoke – and seeing so many of them busy in front of our house only added to this impression! This is how the ‘Lingling’ Sect operates as they unfold their treachery and deception very carefully – step by step! Once they cleared our yard – they did not ask for payment or even any drinks – all they asked for was for my family to join their group! This was the only payment they required! This is how I was enticed into the evil web weaved by the ‘Lingling’ Sect!
