(Boxing Game) Buddhism in Japan is covered below. But holy cow, it's the animated Chun-Li in real life! Doll Mona Kimura knocks out everyone because she kicks when she does her martial arts in the ring against opponents who walk right into her foot again and again.
Mona Kimura (Japanese 木村 萌那, Kimura Mona, born April 12, 2001) is a Japanese kickboxer and former amateur boxer who is currently signed to K-1. She represented Japan at 2022 IBA Women's World Boxing Championships [2, 3, 4].
Kimura started training in karate at age 4 and won seven consecutive JKJO All Japan Junior Karate Championships then started boxing in 4th grade [5, 6, 7]. In 2019 she won the JBC Junior Featherweight Championship... Does she love Bruce Lee or even know who he was? Is she into kung fu like the great [not an actual monastery-trained] Shaolin master Yi Long? She must at least know the who the great martial artists who preceded her are. More
Edo (江戸, lit. "Bay-entrance," Romanized as Jedo, Yedo, Yeddo) is the former name of Tokyo. Under the Tokugawa shogunate, Edo developed into a major early-modern urban center with a population that is believed to have exceeded 1 million by the early 18th century — making it, by many estimates, the largest city in the world at the time.

Buddhism was first established in Japan in the 6th century CE [3, 4, 5]. Most of Japanese Buddhists belong to new schools of Buddhism that were established in the Kamakura period (1185–1333) [6]. During the Edo period (1603–1868), Buddhism was controlled by the feudal Shogunate.
The Meiji period (1868–1912) saw a strong response against Buddhism, with persecution and a forced separation between Buddhism and the indigenous shapeshifter (kami) tradition called Shinto (Shinbutsu bunri).
The largest sects of Japanese Buddhism are Pure Land Buddhism with 22 million followers, followed by Nichiren Buddhism with 10 million believers, Shingon Buddhism with 5.4 million, Zen Buddhism with 5.3 million, Tendai Buddhism with 2.8 million, and about 700,000 for the six old schools established in the Nara period (710–794) [6].

Underground crime ring: Stolen cars in secret tunnels in LA County | FOX 11 LA
(FOX 11 Los Angeles) Whittier Narrows, Los Angeles County, near Montebello - Sept. 4, 2025: FOX 11's Matthew Seedorff received a tip suggesting that criminals are storing stolen cars inside remote runnels in Los Angeles County. Where do stolen cars disappear to with LoJack and all of the new built-in GPS tracking devices? So this is where stolen cars go before they hit the "chop shops" and are sold for parts or shipped out of the country at the Port of Los Angeles in San Pedro to be sold on the world market by crime syndicates. Meanwhile, the LAPD and LASD and CHP all have their fingers up their nose not knowing anything and being too afraid to enter the tunnels to chase after the car thieves and criminals.

The Fourth of July, "Independence Day" in the U.S.A., is all well and good. It's when we overthrew the colonial shackles of British rule. We still seem to be ruled by their central banking system though no one realizes it. The U.S. (Washington D.C.) is the military arm, the Vatican (the Holy See of the Holy Roman Empire) the religious arm, and London the financial center. It's the Ring of the City, with each of these autonomous regions acting as city states apart from the countries that surround them. But who's interested in that fact? Who's going to believe anything not promoted by the mainstream media news?
Vatican City Explained
(CGP Grey) April 9, 2013. The Holy See (formerly the Papal States in Rome) is one of the world's few remaining absolute monarchies (of the current pope-king), a big corporation, like London and its royalty, and whoever really rules the District of Columbia (as the USA was first named Columbia after the goddess/devi who looked a little like the Statue of Liberty).

We're still an British colony, an arm of the UK, an active semi-autonomous arm of a world empire, the Evil Empire who first set off on an imperial adventure in the Philippines, Hawaii, Mexico, the Caribbean, Guam, Puerto Rico, and all those hundreds of military bases we own in countless countries that don't want us there but can't do anything about it because we have coerced contracts with the people we prop up to be in charge and grant us that legal permission to operate an empire there. Just look at the real London and its Fleet Street banking system (and its quasi-independent status). Most Americans must have at one time wondered why Washington D.C. is neither a state nor really part of the country it rules, no?
The Supermundane: Buddhism
But we're talking ultimate matters here, not mundane ones. There are Engaged Buddhists, it's true, but let the din of the mundane cease when we enter the dojo, the temple, the meditation hall.
True, we are ruled by overlords and are ignorant of their true power and reach, their reptilian (raja naga) connections, their maritime laws and binding legalist ("demonic") contracts, and so on. But also true is that there's a higher truth: training in higher morality, higher mentality, higher wisdom. And these are for the purpose of letting go and being free.
According to Buddhism, what is "independence"? One becomes independent of a teacher and any other authority -- including the Buddha himself -- when one directly perceives liberating insight or vipassana.
Then, indeed, one heeds the call of the Kalama Sutra, lives as a noble one (arya), freed from all fetters and further becoming or, in any case, put a limit on suffering and within seven lives makes an end of ALL suffering. See the Four Stages of Enlightenment.
One has a change of lineage (gotrabhu) from the experience. Knowing it oneself, there is no reliance on the Buddha, sutras, texts, or anything else. That's independence. That's liberation (moksha). That's complete freedom (nirvana).
There's more to say, but we must now adjourn to the Barbie-Q for the ritual lighting of the dolls, Ken and his gal-pal (lol). We'll edit and reword this later. Happy Fourth of July!
Maxwell was Epstein's his wing woman and right hand woman. She was until recently "the most wanted woman in the world," on the lam hiding after Epstein's murder in jail to silence him because of his many famous co-conspirators:
Pres. Donald Trump, Sec'y of State Hillary Clinton, former Pres. Bill Clinton, attorney Alan Morton Dershowitz, British royal Prince Andrew, and many other influential men. The FBI claims to have caught up with Maxwell -- daughter of disgraced British media baron Robert Maxwell -- in a hideout in New Hampshire, USA.
Inside the wicked saga of Jeffrey Epstein: the arrest of Ghislaine Maxwell
Two US presidents, sexual harassers, sex addicts, and pedophiles with dates on Pedo Island.
.
Epstein's got us by the balls, Billy goat. - I know.
There was little Donald Trump's New York billionaire Jeffrey Epstein wouldn’t do to satisfy his lust for young [blank] and underage girls.
It included spending millions of dollars masterminding a worldwide child sex-trafficking and blackmail operation to keep many powerful men implicated and quiet. Countless innocent lives of newly nubile victims were destroyed.
A year ago Jeff Epstein was arrested, and a month later he was strangled to death under mysterious circumstances in custody. Investigators, in an unusual move, refused to let this scandal go to the grave with him.
Video blackmail: I have these guys by the balls.
Instead they shifted their attention to his high-profile friends (like Pres. Trump, Bill and Hill Clinton, and Dershowitz), co-conspirators, and fellow sex criminals. One of them is the British queen’s stuttering son, Prince Andrew, who continues to stonewall requests from the FBI for an interview.
But late this week there was a significant breakthrough in the case with the arrest of socialite and fellow child molester Ghislaine Maxwell. She’s accused of being Jeff Epstein’s right-hand woman and has been charged with multiple child sex offences.
As Tara Brown reports, for the first time in a long time, the victims in this wicked saga are feeling relief rather than terror.
(TaraBrach.com) When stressed we often react with looping fearful thoughts, feelings, and behaviors that cause harm to ourselves and others. This talk offers three interrelated strategies that can serve us when we’re triggered by stress. It will help us find our way back to our natural wisdom, empathy, and wholeness of being. By de-conditioning habitual reactivity, we are increasingly able to respond to our life circumstances in ways that serve healing and awakening.
Buddhist teacher Tara Brach reminds us that we are not our thoughts.
Worldwide paedophile ring busted in sting operation
[ABC News (Australia), Aug. 26, 2015] 7.30's Mark Willacy goes inside the covert police sting operation that brought down a global paedophile ring, including its South Australian ringleader.
"PizzaGate" is real and worldwide.
Where there is one ring with many tentacles and shared members in internet chat rooms and private member clubs, there are others yet to be arrested and stopped. People laugh at "PizzaGate" as a hoax, and they cry to hear what Jeffrey Epstein, Donald Trump, Bill Clinton, Alan Dershowitz, and others were doing on Orgy Island and the Lolita Express. But now that the main blackmailer enforcer, Jeffrey Epstein -- working under an unindicted, multi-billionaire boss -- has been "permanently silenced" by strangulation or induced suicide, who else is out there doing the same thing that will never be revealed?
There is no justice for victims when a prosecution case is ended and no evidence found in that investigation used by a complicit government and its officials.More
