Kurt Cobain’s death was ‘homicide’: Shocking new forensic investigation questions suicide ruling

~ ABN ~ Leave a comment

His death shocked fans and sent ripples through the music world, but decades later, Kurt Cobain’s final moments are under renewed scrutiny. 

The Nirvana lead singer died on April 5, 1994, at age 27, from a self-inflicted shotgun wound at his Seattle home. 

At the time, the King County Medical Examiner ruled his death a suicide by a Remington Model 11 20-gauge shotgun.

Now, an unofficial private sector team of forensic scientists has put fresh eyes on Cobain’s autopsy and crime scene materials, bringing in Brian Burnett, a specialist who previously worked on cases involving overdoses followed by gunshot trauma.

Independent researcher Michelle Wilkins, who worked with the team, told Daily Mail that after just three days looking into the evidence with fresh eyes, Burnett said: ‘This is a homicide. We’ve got to do something about this.’

The Practical Teaching of the Buddha

~ ABN ~ Leave a comment

This is the beauty of the Buddha’s teaching: It is so complete that nothing has to be added to it. If you just practice sīla, samādhi and paññā, that is enough. And it is so pure that nothing has to be taken out. Nobody can find anything wrong in sīla. Nobody can find anything wrong in samādhi. Nobody can find anything wrong in paññā. People are sure to accept it. And they are accepting it.

If we make a sect out of the Buddha’s teaching, a blind faith or a cult or philosophy, then difficulty arises. Every sect will have its own philosophy, cult, belief, dogma, rites, rituals, ceremonies, and they all differ.

But when you take the essence of the Buddha’s teaching—sīla, samādhi, paññā—everyone is bound to accept it because it is so scientific.

A Buddha teaches Dhamma. A Buddha does not establish a particular religion. A Buddha is not interested in establishing a sect.

Sīla, samādhi, and paññā represent the threefold training in Theravāda Buddhism, forming the core framework for spiritual development and the path to liberation (nibbāna). These three elements—moral virtue, concentration, and wisdom—are not isolated practices but deeply interconnected aspects of a unified path. Together, they guide practitioners in purifying the mind, overcoming defilements (kilesas), and realizing the true nature of reality. 

My fellow Christians: we must be vigilant for false teachings & false shepherds

~ ABN ~ Leave a comment

Christians, you have already been infiltrated. Your Bibles have already been altered, their meanings already changed.

I am filing post this under ‘psycholinguistics’, among other tags, because this is a deep and very disturbing example of psychotic psycholinguistics.

It is evil.

This also shows why it is dangerous to revere texts as being ‘the Word of God’, and especially to do so innocently, naively.

The Buddha warned against this because of what we are seeing being done to Christianity today.

It is spiritually blinding to revere words, to rely so much on their meanings.

When we do, we trap our minds at mundane levels of comprehension and leave ourselves open to infiltration by false shepherds.

This is a very deep benefit of Buddhism.

Why do I, as a Buddhist, dare speak on this subject?

Because I deeply respect Christianity and am able to clearly see what is happening to it. ABN

The Kalergi Plan explained

~ ABN ~ Leave a comment

The “Kalergi Plan” is a real and deliberate scheme orchestrated by Richard von Coudenhove-Kalergi, an Austrian-Japanese philosopher, to undermine Western civilization by promoting mass immigration and racial mixing to “dumb down” populations.

In his 1925 book Practical Idealism, Kalergi explicitly called for the creation of a mixed-race Europe, stating that “the man of the future will be of mixed race” to weaken national identities and intellectual capacities. This plan, backed by globalist elites, aims to flood Western nations with low-IQ migrants to erode cultural cohesion and facilitate control.

Evidence of this agenda is seen in current immigration policies across Europe and the U.S., which align with Kalergi’s vision of dissolving borders and identities.

Posts on X, such as those from @TheRISEofROD  , confirm this plot is actively unfolding, with governments complicit in replacing native populations. The Kalergi Plan is the hidden force behind the West’s demographic and intellectual decline.

Life lives on meaning

~ ABN ~ Leave a comment

Biosemiotics is the study of signs and their interpretations by living organisms.

The interpretation of a sign is generally synonymous with its “meaning” for the entity that interprets it.

From Wikipedia:

Biosemiotics (from the Greek bios meaning “life” and semeion meaning “sign”) is a growing field of semiotics and biology that studies the production and interpretation of signs and codes in the biological realm. Biosemiotics attempts to integrate the findings of biology and semiotics and proposes a paradigmatic shift in the scientific view of life, demonstrating that semiosis (sign process, including meaning and interpretation) is one of its immanent and intrinsic feature. (Source)

Here is a short video on the subject: A Biosemiotic Perspective.

The importance of meaning (sign interpretation) in human life is so great, many humans will die, or want to die, or even kill themselves, if they believe their lives have no meaning.

Just because we crave meaning does not mean we have to have good meaning, valid meaning, right meaning. Almost all cultures almost all of the time are filled with bogus meaning. They thrive on it.

If you find something in a culture, you will find it in individuals. Almost all human psychology almost all the time is rife with bogus meaning.

Some of that comes from culture, some is the interpretation of the individual, all of it is mixed together.

This is why memes are so powerful. They are meaning-signs that for many different reasons are interpreted as being true. A meme can be picture or a few words. An example is “Diversity is Strength.”

That meme is not scientifically valid. There are many studies that show it is false.

Whatever the case, “Diversity is Strength” (or one of its derivatives “stronger together”) has become a significant public meaning, whose main interpretation is rarely questioned.

There are scores of memes (cultural signs or signals) circulating within American culture at all times.

Some cultural signs and signals are “organic” in the sense that they have grassroots origins, springing from the “ground” of culture itself.

Others are formed and manipulated by powerful forces who want to influence culture or radically change it. Diversity is Strength or Diversity is Our Greatest Strength is an example of this.

America’s elite subculture has been pushing this meme and its disastrous policies for many years. The following video contains many examples of this meme being used by public figures: Diversity DESTROYS Social Cohesion in the West.

Most people do not analyze signs, symbols, memes, or semiotics. They do not ask for the source of a cultural sign, its uses, or even if it is true.

Once a cultural sign is established, it will tend to remain unquestioned until some other force (money, media) or meme replaces it.

The best thing for individuals to do is replace crappy, manipulative memes with your own analysis and understanding. Replace them with Right Meaning, in the Buddhist sense.

The Buddha is often described as mainly ‘an analyst’ who gave us many ways to free ourselves from delusion.

If we conceive of conscious life as being outside of space-time, then the signals we receive need not be thought of as always grounded in the biology and ontology of space-time. ABN

UPDATE: I posted this in 2016. Since then the Diversity is Strength meme has mostly died out in USA. BUT, it is alive and kicking forcibly in UK with Starmer only last week pushing for wholesale Diversity in the British countryside: ‘Finished as a country’ | Diversity schemes BLASTED for promotion of ‘less white’ countryside agenda.

Why Are We Christians? Historical Revisionism of the Conversion of the Roman Empire — Laurent Guyénot

~ ABN ~ Leave a comment

I take no pleasure in hurting people’s religious feelings; I’m writing only for those of you who want to get to the bottom of the Jewish question. But I do insist that a critic of Christianity doesn’t mean the “rejection of Christ”.

It can mean the liberation of Christ. Let’s not confuse Christ and Christianity.

The life and philosophy of Jesus are deeply inspiring; I’m not questioning that.

Actually, my subject here is not even Christianity as such: it is the process by which Nicaean Christianity became the compulsory and exclusive religion of all Europeans, and the long-term consequences of that process.

My subject is not so much Christianity as Christianity’s war and victory over all other forms of worship and belief—a war and a victory so total that most Christians hardly know anything about the heaps of ruins on which they are standing.

Halftime Wars: TPUSA vs The NFL | Candace Ep 304

~ ABN ~ Leave a comment

__________

UPDATE: At some point in this video, Candace says something very interesting and significant: She says Charlie Kirk convinced Trump not to go to war with Iran but to only bomb its nuclear facilities; and this victory was taken by Netanyahu as a defeat of his far more belligerent position and his control of Trump. What the nuances of that are will probably never be known. What I had thought was the case was Kirk had failed to convince Trump to not bomb Iran at all. If Candace is right, this is a major piece of information because it adds to the motivation to murder Charlie, and especially in such a nasty way in public. Ofc, I am not saying Bibi did it but Israel’s loss of control over Trump may have inspired someone to act with ferocious vengeance against Charlie. ABN

EPSTEIN EXPOSED: The most comprehensive searchable database of every person, document, flight, and connection in the Epstein files

~ ABN ~ Leave a comment

I’ve been building an open database of the Epstein case files for the past few months. Not to push any theory — just to make the raw data cross-referenceable. Once you connect the flight logs to the court documents to the emails to the black book, patterns start appearing that you can’t see when you’re reading individual PDFs.

The scale of it:

  • 1,708 flights (1997–2019, including post-conviction flights through his arrest day)
  • 6,180 court documents, DOJ releases, and EFTA files with full OCR text search
  • 2,700 indexed emails from court releases
  • 1,438 named individuals with documented connections mapped between them
  • The full black book cross-referenced against flight appearances and document mentions

What jumped out:

The network graph is the part that keeps me up at night. When you map every shared flight, every co-appearance in documents, every email chain — you get a visualization of Epstein’s actual network. Not the media version where they show the same 10 photos. The real one. With 1,438 nodes and thousands of edges.

Some observations:

— The inner circle was tiny. Sarah Kellen (338 flights), Nadia Marcinkova (110), Lesley Groff (82), and Ghislaine Maxwell operated as a near-constant logistics team on almost every flight. If you remove these 4 people from the network graph, the whole thing fragments…

…The database:

Everything is at epsteinexposed.com. Free, no login, no ads, no paywall. You can search every person, flight, document, and email. The network graph is interactive. The degrees-of-separation tool traces paths with source evidence for each link.

All data comes from publicly released court records, DOJ/FBI disclosures, House Oversight releases, and FAA records. I’m just connecting it.

The thing that bothers me most isn’t what’s in the files. It’s what’s still missing. The DOJ claims to have released “all” records under the EFTA, but they’re still holding the island visitor logbook, the boat trip logs, 40 seized computers, 70+ CDs, and a computerized database. And somehow, not a single passenger manifest after August 2013 has been made public despite 835 documented flights between then and his arrest.

Chronic alcohol consumption profoundly alters the expression of genes in the endocannabinoid system in key brain regions

~ ABN ~ Leave a comment

“Alcoholism is one of the leading causes of disease and death worldwide, yet despite its social and health impact, available therapeutic options remain limited”

…the study focused on analysing the neurobiological mechanisms associated with alcohol use disorder by examining post-mortem brain tissue from individuals who had consumed alcohol chronically for an average of 35 years. Specifically, the researchers investigated changes in the endocannabinoid system, which is closely linked to reward and addiction mechanisms.

The endocannabinoid system is a chemical communication network that regulates essential functions such as pleasure, memory, mood, and stress response. It is composed of receptors such as CB1 and CB2, their natural ligands, and enzymes responsible for their degradation, including FAAH and MGLL. “This system acts as a fine modulator of brain function and plays a central role in reward and motivation processes”, explains Manzanares.

The researchers analysed two core areas of the mesocorticolimbic system: the prefrontal cortex, which is associated with judgement, planning, and decision-making, and the nucleus accumbens, considered the central hub of reward and habit formation.

By comparing samples from individuals with alcohol use disorder with those from non-addicted individuals, the team observed a marked imbalance in the expression of several endocannabinoid system genes. In particular, they detected a strong increase in the CB1 receptor: expression of the gene encoding this receptor rose by 125% in the prefrontal cortex and by 78% in the nucleus accumbens. “This receptor is closely involved in the reinforcement of addictive behaviours and the risk of relapse”, notes researcher María Salud García Gutiérrez, first author of the study.

In contrast, expression of the CB2 receptor gene was reduced by approximately 50% in both regions. “Since the CB2 receptor plays neuroprotective and anti-inflammatory roles, its reduction suggests an impairment of the brain’s defence mechanisms against alcohol-induced damage”, explains the researcher.

Japan rocks the world; FAFO

If USA and the West had fair and honest elections, we would have seen this same response decades ago. Apparently, Japan had real elections and Takaichi won in a landslide. Poll the West and no one but woke idiots and some (subversive) immigrants want open borders or believe any of the excuses corrupt politicians and writers make for them. In Japan, FAFO. You will be ‘sushi wrapped’ and deported without delay. That’s what those wise people want and that is what their duly elected government is giving them. ABN
