BMA (UK) – Techno-Dhamma – Enlightenment Beyond the Body! (22.10.2026)

22/10/2026 Adrian (釋大道)

According to Buddhist theory, the content of the mind is imported a) from the material environment (via the six sense-organs interacting with six sense objects), and b) thought formations premised upon karmic traits laid-down (as “habit”) in previous existences. A previous existence does not have to have been “human” – but could involve any type of life-form – even on other planets situated in different universes and/or dimensions. As this type of existence is mysterious and not fully understood – existences may not unfold in a logical choreography. A past life might have happened in the future when compared to the present – or unfolded within a completely different time corridor not obviously related to the present (although there must be some kind of hidden karmic association). The mechanism of continuing thought-habit might be like one candle lighting another as the former burns-out and the latter blazes brightly. Of course, the Buddha asserts that rebirth (and karma) no longer exists in the enlightened state.

UK: Emergency Self-Ordination in the Chinese Vinaya Discipline! (14.10.2026)

14/10/2026 Adrian (釋大道)

Of course, the laity has a more superficial relationship with the Vinaya Discipline – and the Buddha taught soldiers, prostitutes, butchers, and even murderers, amongst many others. The Buddhist rules are NOT punishments inflicted by a disembodied sky-spirit (theistic god entity) – but exists to guide the psychological and physical energy that comprises an individual. The Buddha was scientific in that he emphasised cause and effect. We are responsible for the way we experience the inner (psychological) or outer (material) world. If you are happy suffering the consequences of the manner in which you live – and you never complain to anyone else about it – then why bother inflicting this form of Buddhist self-discipline upon yourself? There is no point. There are all kinds of reasons why people pursue the lives they do – and this is nothing to do with others – as we possess our own unique karma. Finally, status-hunting in the West – pretending to be a bhikkhu or being a genuine bhikkhu for the wrong reasons – is an offence and will bring its own hellish karma. The Vinaya Discipline is a very powerful and life-affirming vehicle that permits an individual to meet each manifestation of life with tranquillity and wisdom (in-depth).

Laos: DPRK Celebrates 81st Anniversary of “Workers’ Party of Korea” – “National Defence Revolution Museum” Inaugurated! (14.10.2026)

Kim Jong Un cut the inauguration ribbon and toured the exhibits. Reflecting on the arduous path of modernising the Juche-oriented defence industry, he described the museum as an immortal archive demonstrating how the dignity, security, and peace of the DPRK are defended.

He praised the current level of the defence industry as the zenith of glory and honour, achieved through the tenacity, patriotism, and loyalty of a people who unconditionally supported the WPK’s self-defence policies despite severe trials.

He affirmed that building the world’s most powerful defence industry is the WPK’s inherent obligation to protect the destiny of its people. Furthermore, he declared that the nation’s powerful Juche-based weaponry will continue to evolve, dramatically elevating the country’s global position, while the museum itself will expand over time.

China: PRC Scientists Develop Working Nuclear Optical Clock! (8.10.2026)

The team, led by Shiqian Ding, an associate professor at Tsinghua University’s Department of Physics and a jointly appointed researcher at the Beijing Academy of Quantum Information Sciences, used a domestically developed 148 nm continuous-wave ultra-narrow-linewidth laser source and thorium-229 trapped in calcium fluoride crystals to make the breakthrough.

UK: On Why the Universe is left-Wing – Deviating is an Error! (7.10.2026)

07/10/2026 Adrian (釋大道)

Well, as I grew-up practicing martial arts, I became adept at deliberately clashing with Neo-Nazis and fascists – giving them a good beating that broke their noses, teeth and hearts. The few bruises I received in return were worth cost. I enjoy fighting and am a member of the far-left (I have also been a Buddhist monk). I believe in militant peace where the balance of nature is retained through inner and outer discipline. Most far-right thugs I have encountered are riddled with fear – even those who train in boxing or whatever. Get past the surface bluster and they crap themselves. Those on the left must practice martial arts for self-defence and continue the grand tradition of the “Red Army”. We must defend ourselves and one another from far-right violence. To be clear, I do not agree with – or advocate – violence. However, just as long as violence exists within society that targets “us” – we must be prepared to defend ourselves from it. Our minds must be “still” and “quiet” whilst our bodies must be “fit” and “strong”. We must psychologically undermine the far-right so that its physicality is merely a “husk” that can be smashed and pushed aside. We must inwardly defeat the far-right before we are able to decively defeat it outwardly.

La Trobe archaeologists have described 18 new hominin fossils including a second Homo erectus skull fragment confirming the species’ first appearance was in southern Africa 2.0 million years ago – 200,000 years earlier than traditionally thought.

South Africa: Fossils Confirm Homo Erectus Present 2 Million-Years Ago [200,000 Years Earlier Than Previously Thought]! (3.11.2026)

“Homo erectus is the first species of hominin that researchers broadly agree fits within our own genus Homo and is likely directly ancestral to us. Drimolen preserves evidence for the first appearance of this species 2 million years ago, however the original fossil, DNH 134, belonged to a child aged between two and four, and there was uncertainty about what the adult version may have looked like,” lead researcher Dr Jesse Martin said.

“This paper publishes a new adult fossil attributed to Homo erectus, DNH 127, providing further confirmation that this species first appeared in southern Africa 2 million years ago.”

The researchers have also been able to confirm that P. robustus underwent micro-evolution, and evolved larger teeth and chewing muscles between 2 million and 1.8 million years ago.
