The first Shaolin Monastery abbot was Batuo (also called Fotuo or Buddhabhadra) a dhyana master who came to China from India in 464 AD to spread Buddhist teachings.[4]
According to the Continued Biographies of Eminent Monks (645 AD) by Daoxuan, Shaolin Monastery was built on the north side of Shaoshi, the central peak of Mount Song, one of the Sacred Mountains of China, by Emperor Xiaowen of the Northern Wei Dynasty in 477 AD. Yang Xuanzhi, in the Record of the Buddhist Monasteries of Luoyang (547 AD), and Li Xian, in the Ming Yitongzhi (1461), concur with Daoxuan's location and attribution. The Jiaqing Chongxiu Yitongzhi (1843) specifies that this monastery, located in the province of Henan, was built in the 20th year of the Taihe era of the Northern Wei Dynasty, that is, the monastery was built in 495 AD.
The Kangxi Emperor of the Qing Dynasty was a supporter of Shaolin Temple, and he wrote the calligraphic inscriptions that still hang over the Heavenly King Hall and the Buddha Hall today.[5]

Crime & Punishment Journal 30th May 2014
Previously I made the claim that I was my own Grandfather, my mother's father, in a previous life. Normally this would only be possible if he died first, and then possibly his soul could be reincarnated in a new body. This is nothing to be ashamed about is it? If a person is born, they have absolutely no control over what type of body they are born into. Imagine that you are my cousin's son, and are born as a baby, but also at teh same time happen to be somebody else who is currently alive. You have no choice about that. You cannot be in two bodies at teh same time, so if you are one person, either the other person isn't around at that time, or if they are, somebody else but not you is inhabiting their body, or maybe there are two copies of that person's body, which up until now you always considered to be yourself. The first thing I would wish to do if I found myself in this situation
The first thing I would wish to do if I found myself in this situation would be to find out who the other person who is me was. For instance I know of some people who may be their own sons, if this is possible. What it says about their relationship with their wife or mother is another question. For one example I know of a man who was a doctor of medicine, who is now alive as his farmer son, but whose own son is completely different. Another example is the Fayed family, in which Dodi's father was also Dodi. More about that and how I gave Diana and Dodi a driving lesson around the streets of Paris and the connection to my school friends Caroline and Jocelyn Benner later.
So to Horatio Lord Nelson. Some people are going to say that I am completely mad. In fact I have already faced Doctors in a court of law where they have tried to argue that I am mentally ill because believing that one is Jesus, or was Jesus, or looked a bit like Jesus, is a mental illness. The only exception could be if I actually was Jesus, or there actually is a God, but since there is only one God if there is a God, and I happen to believe in that God makes me feel a little bit safer.
That and the fact that the Judge said that he believes I am Jesus too, and that it is not a crime or a mental illness to do so, or he would be as guilty as me, even though I denied it.
There is a portrait in the family of Sir Henry Blackwood, who many people will not have heard of. He was at Trafalga with Lord Nelson, and was a close personal friend of his. He was also a master of strategy and planned a lot of the Trafalga action with Nelson. Unfortunately he did not take much part in the events of the Battle of Trafalga because Nelson made him stand and act as a signals ship which announced the timing of some of the planned moves he and Nelson had thought up. He was as devastated when Nelson was killed, like all the men, because there was something about Nelson which even the hardened sailors of the Royal Navy loved. Nelson realized that he was not so good at parties as Blackwood, because he didn't have the breeding or the education that Blackwood had, but needed somebody to lobby for him in order to build up the power of the navy.
I was both Nelson and Blackwood, but that is about all I can say about it because the rest is history, including the romance between Nelson and Emma Lady Hamilton
Nelson left nothing to chance, but secretly had the latest equipment for his ships, copper bottoms to make them sail faster, special cannon balls and chains to take down rigging, and much drilling and training to make his men the best gunners, the fastest to reload, the most accurate, and the best sailors. It was no accident that he won.

In April 1803 Blackwood was appointed to the Euryalus, of 36 guns. During the next two years he was employed on the coast of Ireland or in the Channel, and in July 1805 was sent to watch the movements of the allied fleet under Villeneuve after its defeat by Sir Robert Calder.[1] On his return with the news that Villeneuve had gone to Cadiz, he stopped on his way to London to see Nelson, who went with him to the Admiralty, and received his final instructions to resume the command of the fleet without delay. Blackwood, in the Euryalus, accompanied him to Cadiz, and was appointed to the command of the inshore squadron, with the duty of keeping the admiral informed of every movement of the enemy. He was offered a line-of-battle ship, but preferred to remain in the Euryalus, believing that he would have more opportunity of distinction; for Villeneuve, he was convinced, would not venture out in the presence of Nelson.
When he saw the combined fleets outside, Blackwood could not but regret
his decision. On the morning of Trafalgar, 21 Oct., in writing to his
wife, he added: 'My signal just made on board the Victory
— I hope to order me into a vacant line-of-battle ship.' This signal
was made at six o'clock, and from that time till after noon, when the
shot were already flying thickly over the Victory, Blackwood remained on board, receiving the admiral's last instructions, and, together with Captain Hardy,
witnessing the disregarded codicil to the admiral's will. He was then
ordered to return to his ship. 'God bless you, Blackwood,' said Nelson,
shaking him by the hand; 'I shall never speak to you again.' 'He' (and
it was Blackwood himself that wrote it) 'not only gave me the command of
all the frigates, for the purpose of assisting disabled ships, but he
also gave me a latitude seldom or ever given, that of making any use I
pleased of his name in ordering any of the stern most line-of-battle
ships to do what struck me as best'. Immediately after the battle Collingwood hoisted his flag on board the Euryalus, but after ten days removed it to the Queen, and the Euryalus was sent home with despatches and with the captured French admiral, Pierre-Charles de Villeneuve. Blackwood landed at Falmouth and was one of the first messengers to use the Trafalgar Way
to deliver his dispatches to the Admiralty in London. He was thus in
England at the time of Lord Nelson's funeral (8 January 1806), on which
occasion he acted as train-bearer of the chief mourner, Sir Peter Parker, the aged admiral of the fleet.[1]
