China: Discoveries in Earliest Known Texts on Horses from Warring States Period! (21.1.2026)
Blogger’s Note: Having accessed a Chinese-language version of this text, it is clear that it has been published to honour the upcoming “Year of the
US: Qi Journal – My Published “Great Treatise” Translation! (26.12.2025)
This material will be published throughout numerous (and obscure) academic journals – but I will make every effort to have a version published for “free access” on the internet. The fee I charge is that your return the six senses a) to the empty mind ground, and that b) you allow the empty mind ground to expand to embrace the entire environment. As you can see, this is a much higher price than just an ordinary exchange of money – be it supposedly empowered metal or paper. Here is the problem – I will accept no other payment for my work – but I will not “demand” in a dogmatic manner. Your realisation of “freedom” is entirely a matter of your own affair. Look within properly – or do not – the choice is yours. I will not alter my charge regardless of your decision. I will not stop you reading – as reading is the first-step.
Debunking the Times of India – and Dr Stuart Hameroff’s “Soul” Pseudo-Science! (2.10.2025)
Science has revealed that “dying” is not as simple as many religions have assumed it to be. An individual can be “brain” dead – whilst the body is otherwise still biologically functioning and in all other ways “healthy”. This is usually the scenario that involves the medical harvesting of healthy organs for transplant into other individuals with medical needs. Obviously, the transplanting process leads to the physical body being legally and lawfully “euthanised” – justified by the now deceased owner having given prior, written consent. Another example is that the brain can be fully functioning and cogent – whilst the body it occupies is either clinically or biologically “dead” (sometimes “both”). In this situation, the body is usually kept alive – through mechanical – means that are “withdrawn” at some point due to the “expense” of its maintaining by the healthcare provider.
UK: Daoism and the Politics of Ageing! (30.9.2025)
For me, it was obvious that “virtue” equated to “longevity” – and it had nothing to do with the Bible or Western religion (the godly live to very old ages). The Western view was (and remains) that non-Christians are essentially evil and therefore are unable to live to very old ages. The Devil strikes them down due to his own inherent corruption – which flows through their veins. As a non-Christian, this description would involve myself – but here’s the thing – I do not feel any more or less good or bad than anyone else. Furthermore, I was told that Chinese people “lie” about their age in an attempt to mimic those who lived very long lives in the Old Testament (according to the Jews). I could not understand this approach – as Chinese Daoism is an ancient teaching (in one form or another) that specialises in “life-extension”. Virtue (德 – De) is a product of climbing a tower (self-cultivation) so that when the top is reached (enlightenment) – things can be seen in a 360 degree perspective.
China: Scientists Set World Record with Magnetic Field 700,000 Times that of Earth! (28.9.2025)
It also provides crucial technical support for multiple cutting-edge fields, including fusion magnet systems, space electromagnetic propulsion, superconducting induction heating, magnetic levitation, and efficient power transmission.
The magnet was developed by the Chinese Academy of Sciences’ Institute of Plasma Physics (ASIPP), located in Hefei, east China’s Anhui Province, in collaboration with the Hefei International Applied Superconductivity Centre, the Institute of Energy of the Hefei Comprehensive National Science Center, and Tsinghua University.
Earth itself is a giant magnet, generating a geomagnetic field of about 0.5 gauss. Superconducting magnets, fabricated by winding superconducting materials, can generate extremely strong magnetic fields while enabling lossless transmission of large currents.
