Yu Zhengsheng is newly promoted to CCP's (Chinese
Communist Party) top 7, the Politburo' Standing Committee.
Recently, Yu inspected Sichuan Ganzi Tibetan area,
and gave some new directions.
He said, they need to develop and improve Tibet's
infrastructure, the Tibetans' income, and to 'continue the struggle against the Dalai clique.'
On the other hand, Tibetans self-immolation incidents
continue as a protest against the highly oppressive CCP rule.
At the end of last year, the authorities also promoted
anti-self-immolation special struggles' in Tibetan areas.
Will the CCP continue to accuse Dalai Lama of helping
change the situation in Tibet? Let's take a look.
The mainland media reported on January 8, that CCP's new
member of Politburo' Standing Committee Yu Zhengsheng went to the Sichuan Ganzi Tibetan area.
He visited the local people, discussed with Tibetan Buddhists,
asked them to adhere to the so-called patriotism, and guided the Tibetan Buddhism to adapt to socialism.
He also stressed, to 'continue carrying out
the struggle against the Dalai clique.'
To protest against the oppressive CCP' rule, since Feb. 2009,
self-immolation incidents of Tibetans have not stopped, with 84 cases taking place only in the last year.
Most of the Tibetans who did self-immolation
were from Ganzi.
The CCP Foreign Ministry repeated at a regular press
Conference that the self-immolation incidents are due to Dalai Lama and the organization of Tibetans in exile.
Dawa Tsering (Tibetan government-in-exile representative
in Taiwan): 'The Dalai Lama, or the Dalai clique,
or these allegations, or that Dalai Lama seeks independence,
etc., are all because the CCP needs an imaginary enemy.
It needs to push all the responsibility to this person,
all the bad things are caused by the foreign forces,
or the Dalai clique, or hostile forces, all these bad things
are due to these reasons, rather than being our, CCP's faults.'
Dawa Tsering said, Tibetans just want to protect their ethnic,
language, scriptures, religion and national freedom.
Thus Tibetans don't want to cut off contacts with their
holy leader Dalai Lama, they even wish he could come back.
If CCP does not change its policy on the Tibetan area,
and instead unjustly accuses the Dalai Lama, this will not help solve the problem, believes Dawa Tsering.
The CCP authorities recently carried out the so called,
'anti-self-immolation special struggle' campaign.
Tibetan writer Tsering Woeser said on her blog that
CCP issued 'Anti-self-immolation Special Struggle Propaganda Documents' with the stamp 'For internal use only.'
The documents were given to Sichuan, Qinghai and Gansu,
the Tibetan areas with most self-immolation incidents.
The CCP authorities also confiscated more than 300 TVs
and satellite equipment in the temples in Qinghai Province, where many self-immolation incidents happened.
They also confiscated and replaced the satellite television
receivers, and banned watching foreign satellite TV.
Huangnan Commision's document claims that the essence
of fighting the 'Dalai clique' is a 'Psychological Warfare.'
Its' core is 'the right to speak,'
and the key is to 'take the initiative.'
Analyst Kunga Tashi is Dalai Lama's representative
in the North America' offices.
He believes, CCP' high-voltage tightening can't help solve
the Tibet problem, but can only aggravate the Tibetans discontent of the CCP's authorities.
He pointed out, 'CCP' authorities can never cut off the
spiritual connection between Tibetans and the Dalai Lama.'
However, while Yu Zhengsheng in Ganzi also did some
embracing actions.
He claimed the Tibetan areas need to develop and improve
the infrastructure and the capacity of public service, to increase the income of the peasants and herdsmen.
Ganzi is located in the east of Qinghai-Tibet Plateau,
and is the first ethnic minority autonomous prefecture.
It has population of 900 thousands, among which 78.4%
being Tibetans. It is also an area with very high poverty rate.
Dawa Tsering: 'About some very sensitive problems, or the
Tibetans themselves, or issues on politics, religion, culture, beliefs, and aspirations, they keep evading them.
On the one hand, they dare not face the main problems,
on the other, they want to solve these problems by developing the economics.
The past experience has proved this cannot work, but CCP'
government could not carry out another strategy, so they still continue to follow this policy.'
Dawa Tsering said that the CCP tried to change the local
society and demographics by increasing Han migration.
Dawa Tsering believes such strategy will only make
the Tibetan areas' problems more complex.

Russian/Nat
It's not just the Orthodox church that is undergoing a renaissance in Russia.
On the edge of Siberia and the border of Mongolia, Russia's Buddhists are growing in strength and number.
For decades they were labelled the enemies of socialism.
But now they are playing an increasingly active role in social, political and religious life all over the ex-Soviet republics.
Even in Russia the wheels are turning.
It is a century-old tradition - before entering the sacred ground of a Buddhist temple worshippers must turn the prayer wheels to gain wisdom.
On each cylinder is written part of a mantra - a prayer containing the timeless wisdom of the high Buddhist priests or even Buddha himself.
When one thinks of Buddhism, Russia is certainly not the first place to come to mind.
But in a land that stretches from western Europe to the heart of Asia, anything is possible.
The temple - or Dat-San - of Ivolginsky in Russia's republic of Buryatia has always been considered the centre of Russia's Buddhist community.
Buddhist pilgrims from all over the nation come here to consult with the highest-ranking lamas or pay their respects to Buddha himself.
Banned under Communist rule, Buddhism is now making a striking comeback.
And worshippers from all over the Commonwealth of Independent States are flooding Ivolginsky's gilded domes.
Some come to see the rarity of a real Buddhist temple, others come to study at Russia's only Buddhist institute, still others come to make their peace with Buddha.
SOUNDBITE: (Russian)
"From '89 we can say that the doors of our monetary were open and were actually flooded with new worshippers, many, many people became believers, many of these new believers were Slavs, Russians, Ukrainians and Belarussians, it was a sort of fashion at first."
SUPER CAPTION: Hamo-Lama, Head Lama of Russia's Buddhists
The Dalai Lama himself has visited the temple.
He personally blessed the school at Ivolginsky Dat-San, raising the image of Russia's Buddhists to an international scale.
Tibetan monks first brought Buddhism to Buryatia in the 18th century.
At that time, the locals mainly followed Shamanism, a primitive spiritualism based on the concept of good and evil spirits.
But with the coming of the Buddhists local gods got new names.
Local rituals were adopted and mutated into the particular form of Buddhism practised in Buryatia today.
SOUNDBITE: (Russian)
"We explained to people that we can do better, that Buddhism has a lot to offer, and a good half of the society here in Buryatia believed us and joined us. In today's world Russia's Buddhism differs from the Buddhism of Mongolia, Tibet and India in that it has been enriched by the local Buryatian religion of Shamanism."
SUPER CAPTION: Hamo-Lama, Head Lama of Russia's Buddhists
In 1937, the temple was destroyed by the Communists - raised to the ground as part of the atheist campaign.
Across Buryatia village, temples were levelled and Buddhism was banned.
But oddly enough, in the late 1940's, Stalin gave his personal permission to rebuild the Ivolginsky Dat-San, mainly as on olive branch to the Buryats.
And today, over 100 young Buddhists study at Ivolginsky's monetary.
Lessons are strict - 15 hours a day for six years, only then does a young man earn the title of lama, or Buddhist priest.
But, despite the gruelling schedule, enrolment in the institute is growing every year.
SOUNDBITE: (Russian)
SUPER CAPTION: Vladislav Kuchivasov, Russian studying to be Buddhist monk
But things are looking up for the followers of Buddha.
Russia is currently home to over one (m) million practising Buddhists.

Stories about robots have gone from the pages of science fiction into news headlines. The reality of robots disseminating into society will occur within the next decade. We've already seen radical changes in the technologies we hold in our hands. Now, as the infrastructure of our cities, towns, transportation and communication capacities change, so will human society. Is the church ready for this radical wave of change that is about to take place?

Gunther Eicke makes his debut appearance on YouTube on The Brian Ruhe Show, recorded Dec. 30, 2015. Gunther spent 11 years immersed in studies on Adolf Hitler, National Socialist Germany and revisionist history. His steel trap memory for detail will impress you! Gunther takes you from the origins of the SS before they were even part of the military, to their elite training as the greatest armed forces in world history. The spiritual ideology of the SS as the noble protectors of National Socialism is described too.
The second hour of his talk with Brian Ruhe follows in Part 2.
SS means "SchutzStaffel". Allgemeine SS = general/ communal, "Schutz" = protection "Staffel" = podium/stage.

The Thai Buddhist Forest Tradition. Thudong: Forest Monks and Hermits of Thailand. Video Edited and Produced by Facundo Soares Gache.
Since the time of the Buddha there have always been monks and nuns who have retreated into the depths of forests, mountains and caves seeking physical isolation to aid them in the development of meditation and realization of the Dhamma, the truth of the Buddha's teaching. Whether in solitude or in small groups, such renunciates lived a life of simplicity, austerity, and determined effort. They have included some of the greatest meditation masters since the Buddha himself. Far from cities and towns, willing to put up with the rigours and hardships of living in the wild for the opportunity to learn from nature, and uninterested in worldly fame or recognition, these forest monastics often remained unknown, their life stories lost among the jungle thickets and mountaintops.
The contemporary Thai Forest Tradition is a down-to-earth, back to the roots movement that models its meditation practice and lifestyle on that of the Buddha and the early generations of his disciples. The advent of the modern age notwithstanding, forest monasteries still keep alive the ancient traditions through following the Buddhist Monastic Code of Discipline, the training rules laid down by the Buddha, known as the Vinaya.
Until the mid-twentieth century most Buddhist monasteries in Thailand were the principle centres of education. Monks in the towns and villages taught school children and emphasised the scholastic study of the Buddhist scriptures. Performing ceremonies also played a large role in their lives. For the most part these village monasteries placed little emphasis on meditation, used money, and did not closely follow the monks' and nuns' training rules.
The Thai revival of the Forest Tradition in the nineteenth century was an attempt to return to the lifestyle and training that was practised under the Buddha. The two main figures in this movement were Venerable Ajahn Mun Bhuridatta and Venerable Ajahn Sao Kantasilo.
Their intention was to realise in their own hearts and minds the inner peace and wisdom of the Dhamma. The busy village monasteries were abandoned for the peace and quiet of nature. The Vinaya was followed strictly, emphasizing the importance of every detail. Monks lived without money, accepting whatever was offered and patiently enduring when nothing was. Ascetic practices recommended by the Buddha were incorporated into their lifestyle: e.g., eating only one meal a day from one's almsbowl, wearing rag robes and living in the forest or in cemeteries.
The monks would often wander through the countryside seeking places conducive to meditation, carrying their few possessions: an almsbowl, three robes, a glot (an umbrella with a mosquito net, which was hung in the forest and used like a tent), and a few personal requisites.
From Ajahn Mun, Ajahn Sao and their numerous distinguished disciples, has come a legacy of powerfully relevant examples of an uncomplicated and disciplined way of life. Their teachings are directed towards those who wish to purify their minds by living the way of the Buddha. The very heart of the Forest Tradition is the development of meditation. By cultivating deep states of tranquility and systematically investigating the body and mind, insight arises as to the true nature of existence.
When entering a good forest monastery, the spirit of practice is evident everywhere. There is an air of simplicity. The buildings are clean and tidy. The remote setting supports an atmosphere of renunciation. Simple unadorned huts are individually nestled in small forest clearings. Monks or nuns mindfully and quietly do their chores or engage in sitting or walking meditation.
In developing meditation one may encounter many obstacles, and the forest masters were noted for their creativity in overcoming the hindrances and defilements of the mind. They were distinguished by their daring determination to realise enlightenment. The disciples of Ajahn Mun and Ajahn Sao gradually grew in number, and due to the excellent teaching they received and the intensity of their effort, many of them became great masters in their own right. Today the Forest Tradition is well established in Thailand and is beginning to take root in western countries.

Buddhist socialism is a political ideology which advocates socialism based on the principles of Buddhism.
Buddhist socialists have called for state provision of the Buddhist requisites of food, shelter, clothing and medicine, for the abolition or amelioration of class distinctions, for campaigns for morality based on Buddhist traditions, and for workers and peasants to overcome the love of property.
People who have been described as Buddhist socialists include Buddhadasa Bhikkhu,S. W. R. D. Bandaranaike, Han Yong-un,U Nu and Norodom Sihanouk.
Bhikkhu Buddhadasa coined the phrase "Dhammic socialism". He believed that Socialism is a natural state meaning all things exist together in one system.
Han Yong-un felt that equality was one of the main principles of Buddhism. In an interview published in 1931, Yong-un spoke of his desire to explore Buddhist Socialism.
Tenzin Gyatso, the Fourteenth Dalai Lama of Tibet has said that:

Karl Heinrich Marx (5 May 1818 – 14 March 1883) was a German philosopher, economist, sociologist, historian, journalist, and revolutionary socialist. His ideas played a significant role in the development of social science and the socialist political movement. He published various books during his lifetime, with the most notable being The Communist Manifesto (1848) and Capital (1867–1894); some of his works were co-written with his friend and fellow German revolutionary socialist, Friedrich Engels.
Born into a wealthy middle class family in Trier, formerly in Prussian Rhineland now called Rhineland-Palatinate, Marx studied at both the University of Bonn and the University of Berlin, where he became interested in the philosophical ideas of the Young Hegelians. In 1836, he became engaged to Jenny von Westphalen, marrying her in 1843. After his studies, he wrote for a radical newspaper in Cologne, and began to work out his theory of dialectical materialism. Moving to Paris in 1843, he began writing for other radical newspapers. He met Engels in Paris, and the two men worked together on a series of books. Exiled to Brussels, he became a leading figure of the Communist League, before moving back to Cologne, where he founded his own newspaper. In 1849 he was exiled again and moved to London together with his wife and children. In London, where the family was reduced to poverty, Marx continued writing and formulating his theories about the nature of society and how he believed it could be improved, and also campaigned for socialism—he became a significant figure in the International Workingmen's Association.

The CCP Foreign Ministry repeated at a regular press Conference that the self-immolation incidents are due to Dalai Lama and the organization of Tibetans in exile.

It needs to push all the responsibility to this person, all the bad things are caused by the foreign forces, or the Dalai clique, or hostile forces, all these bad things are due to these reasons, rather than being our, CCP's faults.' Dawa Tsering said, Tibetans just want to protect their ethnic, language, scriptures, religion and national freedom. Thus Tibetans don't want to cut off contacts with their holy leader Dalai Lama, they even wish he could come back. If CCP does not change its policy on the Tibetan area, and instead unjustly accuses the Dalai Lama, this will not help solve the problem, believes Dawa Tsering. The CCP authorities recently carried out the so called, 'anti-self-immolation special struggle' campaign. Tibetan writer Tsering Woeser said on her blog that CCP issued 'Anti-self-immolation Special Struggle Propaganda Documents' with the stamp 'For internal use only.' The documents were given to Sichuan, Qinghai and Gansu, the Tibetan areas with most self-immolation incidents. The CCP authorities also confiscated more than 300 TVs and satellite equipment in the temples in Qinghai Province, where many self-immolation incidents happened. They also confiscated and replaced the satellite television receivers, and banned watching foreign satellite TV. Huangnan Commision's document claims that the essence of fighting the 'Dalai clique' is a 'Psychological Warfare.' Its' core is 'the right to speak,' and the key is to 'take the initiative.' Analyst Kunga Tashi is Dalai Lama's representative in the North America' offices. He believes, CCP' high-voltage tightening can't help solve the Tibet problem, but can only aggravate the Tibetans discontent of the CCP's authorities. He pointed out, 'CCP' authorities can never cut off the spiritual connection between Tibetans and the Dalai Lama.' However, while Yu Zhengsheng in Ganzi also did some embracing actions. He claimed the Tibetan areas need to develop and improve the infrastructure and the capacity of public service, to increase the income of the peasants and herdsmen. Ganzi is located in the east of Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, and is the first ethnic minority autonomous prefecture. It has population of 900 thousands, among which 78.4% being Tibetans. It is also an area with very high poverty rate. Dawa Tsering: 'About some very sensitive problems, or the Tibetans themselves, or issues on politics, religion, culture, beliefs, and aspirations, they keep evading them. On the one hand, they dare not face the main problems, on the other, they want to solve these problems by developing the economics. The past experience has proved this cannot work, but CCP' government could not carry out another strategy, so they still continue to follow this policy.' Dawa Tsering said that the CCP tried to change the local society and demographics by increasing Han migration. Dawa Tsering believes such strategy will only make the Tibetan areas' problems more complex. 《神韵》2011世界巡演新亮点 http://www.ShenYunPerformingArts.org/ -

3:24RUSSIA: BUDDHISTS ARE GROWING IN NUMBER AND STRENGTH
RUSSIA: BUDDHISTS ARE GROWING IN NUMBER AND STRENGTHRUSSIA: BUDDHISTS ARE GROWING IN NUMBER AND STRENGTH
Russian/Nat It's not just the Orthodox church that is undergoing a renaissance in Russia. On the edge of Siberia and the border of Mongolia, Russia's Buddhists are growing in strength and number. For decades they were labelled the enemies of socialism. But now they are playing an increasingly active role in social, political and religious life all over the ex-Soviet republics. Even in Russia the wheels are turning. It is a century-old tradition - before entering the sacred ground of a Buddhist temple worshippers must turn the prayer wheels to gain wisdom. On each cylinder is written part of a mantra - a prayer containing the timeless wisdom of the high Buddhist priests or even Buddha himself. When one thinks of Buddhism, Russia is certainly not the first place to come to mind. But in a land that stretches from western Europe to the heart of Asia, anything is possible. The temple - or Dat-San - of Ivolginsky in Russia's republic of Buryatia has always been considered the centre of Russia's Buddhist community. Buddhist pilgrims from all over the nation come here to consult with the highest-ranking lamas or pay their respects to Buddha himself. Banned under Communist rule, Buddhism is now making a striking comeback. And worshippers from all over the Commonwealth of Independent States are flooding Ivolginsky's gilded domes. Some come to see the rarity of a real Buddhist temple, others come to study at Russia's only Buddhist institute, still others come to make their peace with Buddha. SOUNDBITE: (Russian) "From '89 we can say that the doors of our monetary were open and were actually flooded with new worshippers, many, many people became believers, many of these new believers were Slavs, Russians, Ukrainians and Belarussians, it was a sort of fashion at first." SUPER CAPTION: Hamo-Lama, Head Lama of Russia's Buddhists The Dalai Lama himself has visited the temple. He personally blessed the school at Ivolginsky Dat-San, raising the image of Russia's Buddhists to an international scale. Tibetan monks first brought Buddhism to Buryatia in the 18th century. At that time, the locals mainly followed Shamanism, a primitive spiritualism based on the concept of good and evil spirits. But with the coming of the Buddhists local gods got new names. Local rituals were adopted and mutated into the particular form of Buddhism practised in Buryatia today. SOUNDBITE: (Russian) "We explained to people that we can do better, that Buddhism has a lot to offer, and a good half of the society here in Buryatia believed us and joined us. In today's world Russia's Buddhism differs from the Buddhism of Mongolia, Tibet and India in that it has been enriched by the local Buryatian religion of Shamanism." SUPER CAPTION: Hamo-Lama, Head Lama of Russia's Buddhists In 1937, the temple was destroyed by the Communists - raised to the ground as part of the atheist campaign. Across Buryatia village, temples were levelled and Buddhism was banned. But oddly enough, in the late 1940's, Stalin gave his personal permission to rebuild the Ivolginsky Dat-San, mainly as on olive branch to the Buryats. And today, over 100 young Buddhists study at Ivolginsky's monetary. Lessons are strict - 15 hours a day for six years, only then does a young man earn the title of lama, or Buddhist priest. But, despite the gruelling schedule, enrolment in the institute is growing every year. SOUNDBITE: (Russian) SUPER CAPTION: Vladislav Kuchivasov, Russian studying to be Buddhist monk But things are looking up for the followers of Buddha. Russia is currently home to over one (m) million practising Buddhists.

70:21The Thai Buddhist Forest Tradition, Thudong: Forest Monks and Hermits of Thailand
The Thai Buddhist Forest Tradition, Thudong: Forest Monks and Hermits of ThailandThe Thai Buddhist Forest Tradition, Thudong: Forest Monks and Hermits of Thailand
The Thai Buddhist Forest Tradition. Thudong: Forest Monks and Hermits of Thailand. Video Edited and Produced by Facundo Soares Gache. Since the time of the Buddha there have always been monks and nuns who have retreated into the depths of forests, mountains and caves seeking physical isolation to aid them in the development of meditation and realization of the Dhamma, the truth of the Buddha's teaching. Whether in solitude or in small groups, such renunciates lived a life of simplicity, austerity, and determined effort. They have included some of the greatest meditation masters since the Buddha himself. Far from cities and towns, willing to put up with the rigours and hardships of living in the wild for the opportunity to learn from nature, and uninterested in worldly fame or recognition, these forest monastics often remained unknown, their life stories lost among the jungle thickets and mountaintops. The contemporary Thai Forest Tradition is a down-to-earth, back to the roots movement that models its meditation practice and lifestyle on that of the Buddha and the early generations of his disciples. The advent of the modern age notwithstanding, forest monasteries still keep alive the ancient traditions through following the Buddhist Monastic Code of Discipline, the training rules laid down by the Buddha, known as the Vinaya. Until the mid-twentieth century most Buddhist monasteries in Thailand were the principle centres of education. Monks in the towns and villages taught school children and emphasised the scholastic study of the Buddhist scriptures. Performing ceremonies also played a large role in their lives. For the most part these village monasteries placed little emphasis on meditation, used money, and did not closely follow the monks' and nuns' training rules. The Thai revival of the Forest Tradition in the nineteenth century was an attempt to return to the lifestyle and training that was practised under the Buddha. The two main figures in this movement were Venerable Ajahn Mun Bhuridatta and Venerable Ajahn Sao Kantasilo. Their intention was to realise in their own hearts and minds the inner peace and wisdom of the Dhamma. The busy village monasteries were abandoned for the peace and quiet of nature. The Vinaya was followed strictly, emphasizing the importance of every detail. Monks lived without money, accepting whatever was offered and patiently enduring when nothing was. Ascetic practices recommended by the Buddha were incorporated into their lifestyle: e.g., eating only one meal a day from one's almsbowl, wearing rag robes and living in the forest or in cemeteries. The monks would often wander through the countryside seeking places conducive to meditation, carrying their few possessions: an almsbowl, three robes, a glot (an umbrella with a mosquito net, which was hung in the forest and used like a tent), and a few personal requisites. From Ajahn Mun, Ajahn Sao and their numerous distinguished disciples, has come a legacy of powerfully relevant examples of an uncomplicated and disciplined way of life. Their teachings are directed towards those who wish to purify their minds by living the way of the Buddha. The very heart of the Forest Tradition is the development of meditation. By cultivating deep states of tranquility and systematically investigating the body and mind, insight arises as to the true nature of existence. When entering a good forest monastery, the spirit of practice is evident everywhere. There is an air of simplicity. The buildings are clean and tidy. The remote setting supports an atmosphere of renunciation. Simple unadorned huts are individually nestled in small forest clearings. Monks or nuns mindfully and quietly do their chores or engage in sitting or walking meditation. In developing meditation one may encounter many obstacles, and the forest masters were noted for their creativity in overcoming the hindrances and defilements of the mind. They were distinguished by their daring determination to realise enlightenment. The disciples of Ajahn Mun and Ajahn Sao gradually grew in number, and due to the excellent teaching they received and the intensity of their effort, many of them became great masters in their own right. Today the Forest Tradition is well established in Thailand and is beginning to take root in western countries. -

Pro-German Lecture on SS Fighting Force - Part 1 of 2
Gunther Eicke makes his debut appearance on YouTube on The Brian Ruhe Show, recorded Dec. 30, 2015. Gunther spent 11 years immersed in studies on Adolf Hitler, National Socialist Germany and revisionist history. His steel trap memory for detail will impress you! Gunther takes you from the origins of the SS before they were even part of the military, to their elite training as the greatest armed forces in world history. The spiritual ideology of the SS as the noble protectors of National Socialism is described too. The second hour of his talk with Brian Ruhe follows in Part 2. SS means "SchutzStaffel". Allgemeine SS = general/ communal, "Schutz" = protection "Staffel" = podium/stage. Brian Ruhe is a Buddhist activist, occasional troublemaker and President of the thulesociety.com . Plea... -
The Thai Buddhist Forest Tradition, Thudong: Forest Monks and Hermits of Thailand
The Thai Buddhist Forest Tradition. Thudong: Forest Monks and Hermits of Thailand. Video Edited and Produced by Facundo Soares Gache. Since the time of the Buddha there have always been monks and nuns who have retreated into the depths of forests, mountains and caves seeking physical isolation to aid them in the development of meditation and realization of the Dhamma, the truth of the Buddha's teaching. Whether in solitude or in small groups, such renunciates lived a life of simplicity, austerity, and determined effort. They have included some of the greatest meditation masters since the Buddha himself. Far from cities and towns, willing to put up with the rigours and hardships of living in the wild for the opportunity to learn from nature, and uninterested in worldly fame or recognition,... -

Yu Zhengsheng is newly promoted to CCP's (Chinese
Communist Party) top 7, the Politburo' Standing Committee.
Recently, Yu inspected Sichuan Ganzi Tibetan area,
and gave some new directions.
He said, they need to develop and improve Tibet's
infrastructure, the Tibetans' income, and to 'continue the struggle against the Dalai clique.'
On the other hand, Tibetans self-immolation incidents
continue as a protest against the highly oppressive CCP rule.
At the end of last year, the authorities also promoted
anti-self-immolation special struggles' in Tibetan areas.
Will the CCP continue to accuse Dalai Lama of helping
change the situation in Tibet? Let's take a look.
The mainland media reported on January 8, that CCP's new
member of Politburo' Standing Committee Yu Zhengsheng went to the Sichuan Ganzi Tibetan area.
He visited the local people, discussed with Tibetan Buddhists,
asked them to adhere to the so-called patriotism, and guided the Tibetan Buddhism to adapt to socialism.
He also stressed, to 'continue carrying out
the struggle against the Dalai clique.'
To protest against the oppressive CCP' rule, since Feb. 2009,
self-immolation incidents of Tibetans have not stopped, with 84 cases taking place only in the last year.
Most of the Tibetans who did self-immolation
were from Ganzi.
The CCP Foreign Ministry repeated at a regular press
Conference that the self-immolation incidents are due to Dalai Lama and the organization of Tibetans in exile.
Dawa Tsering (Tibetan government-in-exile representative
in Taiwan): 'The Dalai Lama, or the Dalai clique,
or these allegations, or that Dalai Lama seeks independence,
etc., are all because the CCP needs an imaginary enemy.
It needs to push all the responsibility to this person,
all the bad things are caused by the foreign forces,
or the Dalai clique, or hostile forces, all these bad things
are due to these reasons, rather than being our, CCP's faults.'
Dawa Tsering said, Tibetans just want to protect their ethnic,
language, scriptures, religion and national freedom.
Thus Tibetans don't want to cut off contacts with their
holy leader Dalai Lama, they even wish he could come back.
If CCP does not change its policy on the Tibetan area,
and instead unjustly accuses the Dalai Lama, this will not help solve the problem, believes Dawa Tsering.
The CCP authorities recently carried out the so called,
'anti-self-immolation special struggle' campaign.
Tibetan writer Tsering Woeser said on her blog that
CCP issued 'Anti-self-immolation Special Struggle Propaganda Documents' with the stamp 'For internal use only.'
The documents were given to Sichuan, Qinghai and Gansu,
the Tibetan areas with most self-immolation incidents.
The CCP authorities also confiscated more than 300 TVs
and satellite equipment in the temples in Qinghai Province, where many self-immolation incidents happened.
They also confiscated and replaced the satellite television
receivers, and banned watching foreign satellite TV.
Huangnan Commision's document claims that the essence
of fighting the 'Dalai clique' is a 'Psychological Warfare.'
Its' core is 'the right to speak,'
and the key is to 'take the initiative.'
Analyst Kunga Tashi is Dalai Lama's representative
in the North America' offices.
He believes, CCP' high-voltage tightening can't help solve
the Tibet problem, but can only aggravate the Tibetans discontent of the CCP's authorities.
He pointed out, 'CCP' authorities can never cut off the
spiritual connection between Tibetans and the Dalai Lama.'
However, while Yu Zhengsheng in Ganzi also did some
embracing actions.
He claimed the Tibetan areas need to develop and improve
the infrastructure and the capacity of public service, to increase the income of the peasants and herdsmen.
Ganzi is located in the east of Qinghai-Tibet Plateau,
and is the first ethnic minority autonomous prefecture.
It has population of 900 thousands, among which 78.4%
being Tibetans. It is also an area with very high poverty rate.
Dawa Tsering: 'About some very sensitive problems, or the
Tibetans themselves, or issues on politics, religion, culture, beliefs, and aspirations, they keep evading them.
On the one hand, they dare not face the main problems,
on the other, they want to solve these problems by developing the economics.
The past experience has proved this cannot work, but CCP'
government could not carry out another strategy, so they still continue to follow this policy.'
Dawa Tsering said that the CCP tried to change the local
society and demographics by increasing Han migration.
Dawa Tsering believes such strategy will only make
the Tibetan areas' problems more complex.

Russian/Nat
It's not just the Orthodox church that is undergoing a renaissance in Russia.
On the edge of Siberia and the border of Mongolia, Russia's Buddhists are growing in strength and number.
For decades they were labelled the enemies of socialism.
But now they are playing an increasingly active role in social, political and religious life all over the ex-Soviet republics.
Even in Russia the wheels are turning.
It is a century-old tradition - before entering the sacred ground of a Buddhist temple worshippers must turn the prayer wheels to gain wisdom.
On each cylinder is written part of a mantra - a prayer containing the timeless wisdom of the high Buddhist priests or even Buddha himself.
When one thinks of Buddhism, Russia is certainly not the first place to come to mind.
But in a land that stretches from western Europe to the heart of Asia, anything is possible.
The temple - or Dat-San - of Ivolginsky in Russia's republic of Buryatia has always been considered the centre of Russia's Buddhist community.
Buddhist pilgrims from all over the nation come here to consult with the highest-ranking lamas or pay their respects to Buddha himself.
Banned under Communist rule, Buddhism is now making a striking comeback.
And worshippers from all over the Commonwealth of Independent States are flooding Ivolginsky's gilded domes.
Some come to see the rarity of a real Buddhist temple, others come to study at Russia's only Buddhist institute, still others come to make their peace with Buddha.
SOUNDBITE: (Russian)
"From '89 we can say that the doors of our monetary were open and were actually flooded with new worshippers, many, many people became believers, many of these new believers were Slavs, Russians, Ukrainians and Belarussians, it was a sort of fashion at first."
SUPER CAPTION: Hamo-Lama, Head Lama of Russia's Buddhists
The Dalai Lama himself has visited the temple.
He personally blessed the school at Ivolginsky Dat-San, raising the image of Russia's Buddhists to an international scale.
Tibetan monks first brought Buddhism to Buryatia in the 18th century.
At that time, the locals mainly followed Shamanism, a primitive spiritualism based on the concept of good and evil spirits.
But with the coming of the Buddhists local gods got new names.
Local rituals were adopted and mutated into the particular form of Buddhism practised in Buryatia today.
SOUNDBITE: (Russian)
"We explained to people that we can do better, that Buddhism has a lot to offer, and a good half of the society here in Buryatia believed us and joined us. In today's world Russia's Buddhism differs from the Buddhism of Mongolia, Tibet and India in that it has been enriched by the local Buryatian religion of Shamanism."
SUPER CAPTION: Hamo-Lama, Head Lama of Russia's Buddhists
In 1937, the temple was destroyed by the Communists - raised to the ground as part of the atheist campaign.
Across Buryatia village, temples were levelled and Buddhism was banned.
But oddly enough, in the late 1940's, Stalin gave his personal permission to rebuild the Ivolginsky Dat-San, mainly as on olive branch to the Buryats.
And today, over 100 young Buddhists study at Ivolginsky's monetary.
Lessons are strict - 15 hours a day for six years, only then does a young man earn the title of lama, or Buddhist priest.
But, despite the gruelling schedule, enrolment in the institute is growing every year.
SOUNDBITE: (Russian)
SUPER CAPTION: Vladislav Kuchivasov, Russian studying to be Buddhist monk
But things are looking up for the followers of Buddha.
Russia is currently home to over one (m) million practising Buddhists.

Gunther Eicke makes his debut appearance on YouTube on The Brian Ruhe Show, recorded Dec. 30, 2015. Gunther spent 11 years immersed in studies on Adolf Hitler, National Socialist Germany and revisionist history. His steel trap memory for detail will impress you! Gunther takes you from the origins of the SS before they were even part of the military, to their elite training as the greatest armed forces in world history. The spiritual ideology of the SS as the noble protectors of National Socialism is described too.
The second hour of his talk with Brian Ruhe follows in Part 2.
SS means "SchutzStaffel". Allgemeine SS = general/ communal, "Schutz" = protection "Staffel" = podium/stage.

The Thai Buddhist Forest Tradition. Thudong: Forest Monks and Hermits of Thailand. Video Edited and Produced by Facundo Soares Gache.
Since the time of the Buddha there have always been monks and nuns who have retreated into the depths of forests, mountains and caves seeking physical isolation to aid them in the development of meditation and realization of the Dhamma, the truth of the Buddha's teaching. Whether in solitude or in small groups, such renunciates lived a life of simplicity, austerity, and determined effort. They have included some of the greatest meditation masters since the Buddha himself. Far from cities and towns, willing to put up with the rigours and hardships of living in the wild for the opportunity to learn from nature, and uninterested in worldly fame or recognition, these forest monastics often remained unknown, their life stories lost among the jungle thickets and mountaintops.
The contemporary Thai Forest Tradition is a down-to-earth, back to the roots movement that models its meditation practice and lifestyle on that of the Buddha and the early generations of his disciples. The advent of the modern age notwithstanding, forest monasteries still keep alive the ancient traditions through following the Buddhist Monastic Code of Discipline, the training rules laid down by the Buddha, known as the Vinaya.
Until the mid-twentieth century most Buddhist monasteries in Thailand were the principle centres of education. Monks in the towns and villages taught school children and emphasised the scholastic study of the Buddhist scriptures. Performing ceremonies also played a large role in their lives. For the most part these village monasteries placed little emphasis on meditation, used money, and did not closely follow the monks' and nuns' training rules.
The Thai revival of the Forest Tradition in the nineteenth century was an attempt to return to the lifestyle and training that was practised under the Buddha. The two main figures in this movement were Venerable Ajahn Mun Bhuridatta and Venerable Ajahn Sao Kantasilo.
Their intention was to realise in their own hearts and minds the inner peace and wisdom of the Dhamma. The busy village monasteries were abandoned for the peace and quiet of nature. The Vinaya was followed strictly, emphasizing the importance of every detail. Monks lived without money, accepting whatever was offered and patiently enduring when nothing was. Ascetic practices recommended by the Buddha were incorporated into their lifestyle: e.g., eating only one meal a day from one's almsbowl, wearing rag robes and living in the forest or in cemeteries.
The monks would often wander through the countryside seeking places conducive to meditation, carrying their few possessions: an almsbowl, three robes, a glot (an umbrella with a mosquito net, which was hung in the forest and used like a tent), and a few personal requisites.
From Ajahn Mun, Ajahn Sao and their numerous distinguished disciples, has come a legacy of powerfully relevant examples of an uncomplicated and disciplined way of life. Their teachings are directed towards those who wish to purify their minds by living the way of the Buddha. The very heart of the Forest Tradition is the development of meditation. By cultivating deep states of tranquility and systematically investigating the body and mind, insight arises as to the true nature of existence.
When entering a good forest monastery, the spirit of practice is evident everywhere. There is an air of simplicity. The buildings are clean and tidy. The remote setting supports an atmosphere of renunciation. Simple unadorned huts are individually nestled in small forest clearings. Monks or nuns mindfully and quietly do their chores or engage in sitting or walking meditation.
In developing meditation one may encounter many obstacles, and the forest masters were noted for their creativity in overcoming the hindrances and defilements of the mind. They were distinguished by their daring determination to realise enlightenment. The disciples of Ajahn Mun and Ajahn Sao gradually grew in number, and due to the excellent teaching they received and the intensity of their effort, many of them became great masters in their own right. Today the Forest Tradition is well established in Thailand and is beginning to take root in western countries.

Amongst White Clouds
Amongst White Clouds American director Edward A. Burger takes us on his unforgettable journey into the hidden lives of China's forgotten Zen Buddhist hermit tradition. Amongst White Clouds is a look at the lives of zealot students, gaunt ascetics and wise masters living in isolated hermitages dotting the peaks and valleys of China's Zhongnan Mountain range. The Zhongnan Mountains have been home to recluses since the time of the Yellow Emperor, some five thousand years ago. Many of China's most realized Buddhist masters attained enlightenment in this very range! And now? It is widely thought that this tradition was all but wiped out by the twists and turns of history. Amongst White Clouds shows us this is not the case. One of only a few foreigners to have lived and studied with these hi... -

Spiritual Roots of Nazism and the Founding Figures
Tyrone returns for his second visit on The Brian Ruhe Show discussing the history of proto-White Nationalism from the mid-19th century up until 1919, the time of the formation of Italian Fascism and German National Socialism. In doing so he also covers the spiritual roots of National Socialism in Germany around the turn of the 20th century. Then Tyrone talks about current news with Donald Trump's comments about a temporary ban on Muslims entering America. Tyrone lives in London, England and is only 27 in this video but for over ten years he has been deeply studying Adolf Hitler and related subjects such as the roots of National Socialism.

This speech discusses how the cow got into Indian politics as a hindrance to democratic values, the story of how even with the support from either side of the political spectrum in India this bill has not been passed the yet, how the recent fascist movement has made the cow their banner, the inhuman side of this politics of faith and how the politics of Kerala and India will look like in the future and how it ought to be in detail and depth.The speaker traces the history of beef eating in India right from the vedic period. The upper class hindus called brahmins who are lesser than 5% percent of population, used to eat meat in the vedic period. They also sacrificed cows and bulls in the yagas. But, somehow, they stopped doing so later(between BCE 4 th century-CE 4 th C). Probably under Buddhist and Jainist influence. In India, cow is a holy animal for many Hindus. It was also used as a political tool in the nationalist movement against British imperialism. In 1857, the first war of independence, the unrest in the British-Indian army was insinuated by the rumour that the fat of cows and pigs were used in the cover of cartridge that the soldiers required to open with mouth. The Hindus and Muslims in the army turned against colonial masters on account of this. The British successfully suppressed the rebellion. Later, in 1880's Kuki-namdhari sikh movement in Punjab was motivated by cow protection. In 1883, Swami Dayananda Sarswathy, the head of Arya samaj, started Gorakshini samithis all over north India. It led to religious conflicts between hindus and muslims 1883-1917 period. Three big riots happened in India in which at least 100 people killed. The father of the nation, MK Gandhi, Tilak, Lala Lajpathrai were the champions of cow protection in national politics. After independence, cow slaughter was partially or completely banned in 24 out 29 states in India. A blanket ban on cow slaughter is yet to manifest due to strong opposition from Kerala, West Bengal and North eastern states. India's socialist prime minister Jawharlal Nehru was firmly against total ban on cow slaughter in India. Article 48 of Indian constitution(directive principles) only suggests that due to agricultural and economic reasons slaughter of milch and draught animals like cow may be minimized as much as possible. This is only an advice to the states of the union and the same is not legally enforceable. Article 48 is good enough to vindicate banning cow slaughter as envisaged in the laws implemented by many state governments in India. The ruling party at the centre, BJP, now uses cow slaughter issue as a political tool to get electoral gains. But the election results in the recent Bihar assembly polls proved that such divisive communal policies were of little impact in the electorate.Widespread intolerance towards liberals and minorities have become the hallmark of present day India under the rule of the Hindu nationalist party, BJP. Earlier this year, Barack Obama himself commented on " acts of intolerance that would have shocked Gandhiji, the person who helped to liberate that nation". The current trend of "poisoning politics with religious hatred" under the present Indian Government has been criticized far and wide. See this recent editorial in New York Times : http://www.nytimes.com/2015/11/10/opinion/a-rebuke-to-indias-prime-minister-narendra-modi.html?rref=collection%2Ftimestopic%2FModi%2C%20Narendra&action;=click&contentCollection;=timestopics®ion;=stream&module;=stream_unit&version;=latest&contentPlacement;=3&pgtype;=collection&_r=0
One of the most macabre expressions of this growing intolerance in India happened on the night of 28 September 2015 in Bisara village near Dadri, Uttar Pradesh. A 50-year-old man, Mohammad Akhlaq, was beaten to death and his 22-year-old son severely injured by a mob, for the "crime" of eating beef.See:

Even as the Prime minister of the country chose to remain silent over the incident, people all over India raised their voices .
https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/worldviews/wp/2015/10/05/mob-killing-of-indian-muslim-over-beef-rumor-sparks-online-backlash/
This talk is one such voice of dissent against the prevailing climate of religious intolerance and jingoism in India.
A Rebuke to India’s Prime Minister Narendra Modi
His party’s loss in Bihar is a clear message to stop divisive politics and start delivering on promises of economic development.

The Hindus and Muslims in the army turned against colonial masters on account of this. The British successfully suppressed the rebellion. Later, in 1880's Kuki-namdhari sikh movement in Punjab was motivated by cow protection. In 1883, Swami Dayananda Sarswathy, the head of Arya samaj, started Gorakshini samithis all over north India. It led to religious conflicts between hindus and muslims 1883-1917 period. Three big riots happened in India in which at least 100 people killed. The father of the nation, MK Gandhi, Tilak, Lala Lajpathrai were the champions of cow protection in national politics. After independence, cow slaughter was partially or completely banned in 24 out 29 states in India. A blanket ban on cow slaughter is yet to manifest due to strong opposition from Kerala, West Bengal and North eastern states. India's socialist prime minister Jawharlal Nehru was firmly against total ban on cow slaughter in India. Article 48 of Indian constitution(directive principles) only suggests that due to agricultural and economic reasons slaughter of milch and draught animals like cow may be minimized as much as possible. This is only an advice to the states of the union and the same is not legally enforceable. Article 48 is good enough to vindicate banning cow slaughter as envisaged in the laws implemented by many state governments in India. The ruling party at the centre, BJP, now uses cow slaughter issue as a political tool to get electoral gains. But the election results in the recent Bihar assembly polls proved that such divisive communal policies were of little impact in the electorate.Widespread intolerance towards liberals and minorities have become the hallmark of present day India under the rule of the Hindu nationalist party, BJP. Earlier this year, Barack Obama himself commented on " acts of intolerance that would have shocked Gandhiji, the person who helped to liberate that nation". The current trend of "poisoning politics with religious hatred" under the present Indian Government has been criticized far and wide. See this recent editorial in New York Times : http://www.nytimes.com/2015/11/10/opinion/a-rebuke-to-indias-prime-minister-narendra-modi.html?rref=collection%2Ftimestopic%2FModi%2C%20Narendra&action;=click&contentCollection;=timestopics®ion;=stream&module;=stream_unit&version;=latest&contentPlacement;=3&pgtype;=collection&_r=0
One of the most macabre expressions of this growing intolerance in India happened on the night of 28 September 2015 in Bisara village near Dadri, Uttar Pradesh. A 50-year-old man, Mohammad Akhlaq, was beaten to death and his 22-year-old son severely injured by a mob, for the "crime" of eating beef.See:
https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/morning-mix/wp/2015/09/30/a-mob-in-india-just-dragged-a-man-from-his-home-and-beat-him-to-death-for-eating-beef/
Even as the Prime minister of the country chose to remain silent over the incident, people all over India raised their voices .
https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/worldviews/wp/2015/10/05/mob-killing-of-indian-muslim-over-beef-rumor-sparks-online-backlash/
This talk is one such voice of dissent against the prevailing climate of religious intolerance and jingoism in India.
A Rebuke to India’s Prime Minister Narendra Modi
His party’s loss in Bihar is a clear message to stop divisive politics and start delivering on promises of economic development.

Amongst White Clouds
American director Edward A. Burger takes us on his unforgettable journey into the hidden lives of China's forgotten Zen Buddhist hermit tradition.
Amongst White Clouds is a look at the lives of zealot students, gaunt ascetics and wise masters living in isolated hermitages dotting the peaks and valleys of China's Zhongnan Mountain range. The Zhongnan Mountains have been home to recluses since the time of the Yellow Emperor, some five thousand years ago.
Many of China's most realized Buddhist masters attained enlightenment in this very range! And now? It is widely thought that this tradition was all but wiped out by the twists and turns of history. Amongst White Clouds shows us this is not the case.
One of only a few foreigners to have lived and studied with these hidden sages, Burger reveals to us their tradition, their wisdom, and the hardship and joy of their everyday lives.
With both humor and compassion, these inspiring and warm-hearted characters challenge us to join them in an exploration of our own suffering and enlightenment in this modern world. (Excerpt from amongstclouds.com)

Tyrone returns for his second visit on The Brian Ruhe Show discussing the history of proto-White Nationalism from the mid-19th century up until 1919, the time of the formation of Italian Fascism and German National Socialism. In doing so he also covers the spiritual roots of National Socialism in Germany around the turn of the 20th century. Then Tyrone talks about current news with Donald Trump's comments about a temporary ban on Muslims entering America. Tyrone lives in London, England and is only 27 in this video but for over ten years he has been deeply studying Adolf Hitler and related subjects such as the roots of National Socialism.
Brian makes reference to previous videos weeks before on this channel. Tyrone talked about the history of the Ku Klux Klan and John Friend described them as well in our video "The Realist Report on Jewish Control Over America".
This video was made on the first day of growth for Brian's Hitler mustache. Video made courtesy of the amazing free technology of Google Hangouts on Air while Ruhe was in Vancouver, Canada and Tyrone in England.
