On Attempting to Be Theoretically and Practically “Free”! (17.11.2023)

This situation reminds me of Carl Jung, an ethnic German born in Switzerland, who in 1956 published a ridiculous little book purportedly about ‘UFOs’ – but which contained a section openly attacking the USSR (parroting US Cold War Propaganda) just 11-years after Jung’s ethnicity had perpetuated one of the worst crimes in human history – killing and maiming 41-million in the USSR! Jung NEVER addressed the inhumanity of his fellow Germans but felt able to lend his academic weight to the ongoing demonisation of the victims of German immorality. From that day onwards, Jungian thinking and theory become just another path leading to an illusionary freedom – with those who describe themselves as ‘Jungians’ simply making the same interpretive mistakes as their progenitor.

Flora Botton (Mexico): Why Ancient & Modern China Should Be Understood as a Completed Whole! (2.10.2023)

Flora Botton: Mexico and China have established diplomatic relations for more than 50 years. I am happy to say that Mexico and China have a lot of communication in all aspects, whether it is economic relations, political relations, or academic relations. Exchange students, scholarship establishment, visiting scholars, travel, language learning… all kinds of communications.

In ancient times, “sinologists” were scholars who spread Chinese culture by learning and translating Chinese. They specialized in the study of traditional Chinese culture. And now the term is widely used for any scholar who studies China, even contemporary China.

The Self-Contained Psychology of the Far-Right! (2.8.2023)

Fascism is the fulfilment of a certain type of ‘Bourgeoisie’ political ideology and is very difficult to dislodge. Whereas the ‘Proletariat’ represents a complete transformation of society – ‘fascism’ is nothing but a completion of a certain vision of the ‘Bourgeoisie’. Therefore, the ‘fascists’ and the ‘Bourgeoisie’ always work together hand-in-hand – and conspire to prevent the ‘Proletariat’ (working-class) from taking power anywhere in the world. Together, these two expressions of the ‘Bourgeoisie’ prevent the means of production from reverting back into the hands of the ‘Aristocracy’ or progressing forward into the hands of the ‘Proletariat’. Fascism, therefore, is a ‘reflection’ of the ‘Bourgeoisie’. A ‘mythic’ reality that advocates a misnomer. The far-right is merely a dark-corner of the Bourgeoisie – and nothing else – as both are essentially anti-working-class. Just as long as the Bourgeoisie can keep the political focus firmly upon the horizontal plane – then no genuine Revolution can take place on the vertical plane.

China: Guangzhou “LGBTQI+ Film Festival”! (2.6.2023)

During 1986 – Jin Xing – was part of a PLA Delegation that visited the DPRK to celebrate the birthday of Kim Jong Il. Later, after studying dance in China – Jin Xing travelled to the US to study Western dance – before returning China.

‘A “LGBTQI+ Film Festival” will be screened in China’s Guangzhou province. This film festival is jointly organized by the Consulates General situated in Guangzhou of 15 countries – including the Netherlands. The organisers are very happy (and honoured) to invite famous Chinese dance artist (and host) #JinXingNuShi! To celebrate this develoment – Jin Xing has recorded a video!’

Transgender Studies: Interesting Academic Information! (14.5.2023)

This is a selection of reliable (academic) articles pertaining to the US and UK regarding the objective study of ‘Transgenderism’ and/or ‘Transsexuality’ – with a bias toward the US. I have checked the links to ensure each is working properly, and have assessed the efficacy of each research paper. The data should be ‘objective’ and its scientific interpretation ‘impartial’. This type of study is important so as to avoid ‘political’ bias (of whatever orientation) and to construct a sound ‘material’ basis for the study of this subject. We know that this subject ‘exists’ – and we need to establish ‘why’ and in so doing ascertain the ‘direction’ of this trend. This process requires ‘detachment’ from the more ’emotive’ reactions seen within certain sections of society – and to approach this subject as a Doctor might approach any other element of physical and psychological health.

Hongshan (紅山) Culture (4700-2900 BCE): Ancient China – Transgenderism and Buddhism! (15.4.2023)

The concept of a female goddess in China existed thousands of years prior to the development of Buddhism in India – and yet when the ‘male’ Avalokiteśvara Bodhisattva (evoking ‘Compassion’) was transmitted into China from India – ‘he’ morphed into a ‘she’ (becoming locally known as ‘Guanyin’ [觀音] or she who is ‘Attentive to Sound’) – whilst retaining all the Buddhist characteristics. Why did this ‘transgender’ event occur?
