LeShan Giant Buddha 乐山大佛 scenic area, SiChuan province

The Giant Buddha, which is around 70 meters in height, was carved out from the hill during the Tang dynasty (618–907). It took 90 years to complete.

Each year, we up the quality. At BB, it's always about quality, not quantity. Variety, certainly, but not quantity. Last videos of 2021 - with PopMatta ... One needs to look out for Serpent / Laowai v.2, and not get duped; see through the disguises (devil dressed as a dove); it is for sure that they are out there ... Geo-politics is a mine-field. Be aware of it; but don't let it dull your mind. Let love, creativity and calm be the air that you breathe. The world is doomed to destruction; the vast majority do indeed vastly outnumber the zealots, but in the West, though the people are by and large brainwashed, for sure, most will ever be too dumb to realize it. Plus, western culture has bred a large proportion of narcissists, devoid of empathy and compassion. Extreme individualism ensures ultimate catastrophe. Once extinction becomes possible, it becomes inevitable. The power of annihilation grows much faster than general IQ/EQ; hence the 'great silence' in the universe. While the Earth is still here, live life to the fullest, each remaining day. The tragedy will play out over and over for eternity; don't waste much time on thinking about it. *** All one needs to know is ... We are all one family; but some in the West just want division, control and power - and that's not family - that's hate; 'divide and rule' (elitism / colonialism / imperialism / hegemony). The difference between China and the West ? It is simply, and profoundly, this : For China, the people are family. For the West, the people are livestock. For China, the people are family; not just Chinese, but all people. For the West (the 'elite'), the people are merely livestock. All the best for the year ahead, from BeiJingBuzzz. Keep it real.

The BBC never stops these days with its China demonisation – but who really has the health crisis ?
Too many things to cover, but one is the attempt to portray China as 'hiding something' and that according to 'reports' (never cited, but no doubt intel fronts) things are 'really bad' ('trust us' - lol). This is a good example of where 'news' is not really news at all, but the attempt to instigate uprising by pedaling false information. In one of its latest salvos, it notes one young death of a celebrity and then adds some more, all of which were over 80. One could explain why this is so absurd, but it is obvious. That is one reason why BB recommends Chinese people to not travel to, study in, or invest in, the UK (a small US puppet island off the west coast of Europe). Still want to go to the UK ? Remember that if you get stabbed (common), you could be waiting over 24 hours for an ambulance, spend many more hours lying in it before being off-loaded onto a trolley in a hospital corridor, before maybe being treated (if still alive). That's how it is there; just so you know. See the BBC ; ) No wonder they need to try and divert one's attention with smoke and mirrors (lies) ... So, which country really has the health crisis ???
