    The first episode of our “Unknown Villages” series features one of the most amazing stories of an American in China.
    His name is Brian Linden and he came to China for the first time 37 years ago. He instantly fell in love with the culture during his studies at Stanford. Later, he decided to open a unique Education and Tourism Center “Linden Center” in many unique spots in China - to give visitors from around the world a taste of what he calls the “real and authentic” China.
    He built world-class facilities with beautiful designs while maintaining the historical architectural styles of the locals. You can find Linden Centers in magical spots like Shilong Village 石龙村 and XiZhou喜洲 in Yunnan Province.
    Contact Linden Center for enquiries/booking on Wechat: lindencentre
    他们的微信公众号:喜林苑LindenCenter
    欢迎去石龙村看看Linden Center。是我住过最有意思的农村民宿/教育中心!

      When you graduated from Stanford,you can just ignore the opinions from the mortals .Although what others think mean very little to such a guy,I would say :dude,you’re a hero to this village .

      Im sure Id seen vids of Linden before. He moved ro China and bought a very large aristocratic pile in Dali, Yunan where he assimilated into the life and culture of the ethnic minority tribe. He searched for antiques to
      renovate and restore the grand house to its former Ming or Tang, dynastic glory. He's an active member of the of the village, community. He speaks excellent Mandarin and after some time, he had a Chinese wife and 2 children. They opened up their restored ancient house to take in tourists and travellers.
      Linden struck me as. someone who read Chinese lan- guage, history, culture and tradition
      esp. the diversity of ethnicities deeply and became not only. a Sinologist, but a Chinese. The adoption of another racial identity as different as that of a Northern European and a Han Chinese is a conscious cross border choice for a more beautiful, meaningful and morally upgraded society. Many people all over the world have crossed borders to become a diffetent race, natio nality or religion for polizical, linguistic, economic reasons, or for love, the inheritance of coloninialism and following ideological influences as in the footsteps of popular idols, revolutions and variety of changes in the rise of new ideas,
      thinking, innovations
      emigrations and not least, becomig helpless war refugees. Among all these factors and forces pushing individuals to cross borders, its only love, linguistic and cultural influences that are made by the self- determination of making a conscious choice to change their racial. identity. But people who drop their racial stock to become a completely different racial origin by the change of name and surname of say, Jack Smith, Lisa Ems, Adewola Aaron, and Sarah Lindsay. this becoming English. Many people chose this path for economic and political reasons. Many people, like the Chinese, like to take on an English name but keep their Chinese surname as in Richard Li, Betty Chu and Jack Ma, refering their race aChinese British or simply Chinese. i think the Chinese are resilient to changing their racial origin. Westerners and all non Chinese who become Chinese havr their original names translated into Chinesr replicating Mandarin pinyin phonetics but always with the choice for getting the best semantics so john is johan but johan has quite alot of characters to make his Chinese phonetic version sound most subtle, poetic, smartest... herein lies the amazing well of superlatives for naming or renaming oneself. I adore Linden whatever his race or name. He has magical qualities and has reincarnated himself. Health, longevity and peace and love to all.

      各位弟兄還是姐妹,天國近了,我們應當悔改,信耶穌。時候將到,死人將要在審判日時,爲自己在地上所作的一切行爲,在神的面前受審判。那時,就再也沒有人有機會悔改了。所以我們應當趁著審判官還沒定我們的罪之前,趕緊和祂和好,悔改我們的不義行爲,祈求祂赦免我們的罪,免得祂定我們的罪,我們就落在刑罰之中。主耶穌基督就是那位審判官,天國和地獄的鑰匙在主耶穌的手中。
      欺騙,貪心,口吐惡言,荒宴,偷竊,殺人,犯奸淫,淫亂,好色,不尊重父母,詭詐,狂傲,拜偶像,交鬼,占卜,觀兆,法術,邪術,嫉妒,惱怒,紛爭,結黨,詭詐
      ,醉酒,怨恨,毀謗,惡念,同性戀,亂稱神的名,自稱是神,稱人或動物或金銀木石土等物質為神,褻瀆神,違背神,罵神,不肯悔改信耶穌,等等這些在神的面前都是罪,只要我們犯了其中一個罪,就足夠稱我們為罪人了。如果我們現在不悔改這些罪惡行爲,仍然繼續犯下去,那麽以後審判日的時候要怎麽和神交代呢?喜歡犯罪作惡的人,神將來是要報應他的。但神愛世人,不願世人因自己的罪惡而滅亡,所以仍然給我們機會去悔改,而悔改的方法衹有一個,那就是信靠耶穌。像一個從前敗家的孩子回到父親的身邊,向父親認罪悔改,祈求赦免,并且聽從父親的教導,從此成爲一個乖孩子。所以我們也要藉著主耶穌回到父神的面前,向父神認罪悔改,祈求赦免,并聽從主耶穌的教導,重新做人,改過自新,不再犯罪。主耶穌可以赦免我們一切的罪。主耶穌可以幫助我們重新做人。
      耶穌基督降世爲人,因爲愛我們,不願我們因自己的罪惡滅亡,所以要教導我們脫離罪惡的行爲,糾正我們的生活,要救我們脫離將來的審判,甚至願意在過程中受苦,被人逼迫,辱駡,鞭打,吐唾沫,爲你我而流淚流血,被釘在十字架上而死。主耶穌爲了贖你我世人的【罪】而被釘在十字架上而死。
      但主耶穌死後第三日復活,后升到天上去,以後還要回來拯救屬於祂的人。
      人死後要麽得永生進天國,要麽得永刑進地獄。地獄里的火是不滅的,蟲是不死的。悔改信靠主耶穌的人能進天國,不願悔改信靠主耶穌的人不能進天國。
      我們要接受主耶穌爲我們生命中獨一的救主,生命中獨一的真神。你們若有憂愁,就來尋找主耶穌,主耶穌就安慰你們。若有困難的,就來尋找主耶穌,主耶穌就賜給你們力量。若有傷痕累累的,就來尋找主耶穌,主耶穌就醫治你們。若有勞苦重擔的,就來尋找主耶穌,主耶穌就使你們得安息。主耶穌可以赦免你們一切的罪,主耶穌可以賜給你們真平安和喜樂,主耶穌可以賜給你們死後復活得永生。主耶穌連使死人復活都可以,因爲在神凡事都能。
      除了耶穌的名,世上沒有別的名可以使人得救。獨一的真神衹用一個名字來代表自己,那就是【耶穌】。
      主耶穌教導,“不要犯罪欺騙說謊”,惡人卻說,“不,我選擇犯罪欺騙說謊”。這樣他就是在定自己的罪,以後定他的罪的證據就是在此。
      主耶穌說:
      你們不要論斷人,就不被論斷。因爲你們怎樣論斷人,就必怎樣被論斷。你們用什麽量器量給人,就必用什麽量器量給你們。你們不要定人的罪,就不被定罪。你們要饒恕人,就必蒙饒恕。
      你們可以在網上搜尋【聖經】來讀,建議從【新約】的“約翰福音”讀起。或這里有一個 cut.ibibles.net/
      無論你生活中有什麽困難,煩惱,壓力,你就向主耶穌禱告祈求,祂一定會聽到你的禱告。主耶穌一定能幫到你,因爲在神凡事都能。
      【神原是我們的父親,是祂創造了我們,我們要回頭承認祂,借著信從主耶穌基督承認祂。世人啊,該醒過來了。】

    Awesome. The children are the future, and they are experiencing both sides, the village life, and the Mega City life if they want too. So one day they have choices, and l am sure one or the other will come back as teachers. They are looking healthy, and content satisfied with their lifestyle, and education possibilities. The Principal looked also humble and proud of his school. I love this, because l also love village life. Thank you. It was joyous and hopeful to watching this.

      @Amos Zou 即或在美、英等經濟較為發達的國家,當中也是貧富懸殊的。你只見到一些經濟能力較好的來中國發展,而他們的國家裏,也有不少貧民窟,無家的露宿者,那你又知道嗎?可這些自由國家,都發展成貧者愈貧富者愈富,財富只掌握在百分之一、二的人手裏。他們的政府也沒有像中國那樣致力去幫助國民脫貧,而且做出很好的成績,在此理當按讚!👍當然,前面仍需要繼續努力。加油中國!💪💪

    He is absolutely right. Preserve, inherit, pass on, further develop and promote the 5000 years old yet modern Chinese cultures to the world is what this generation of Chinese should do. The world knows just too little about real China and she has been misunderstood for too long. Yunnan is also one of my favourite province of China.

    Brian Linden is, after all, among the nicest Americans, who embrace cultural diversity and wouldn't discriminate on the basis of skin color. We need to also take note that he is someone in international education, which means he engages with and finding ways to fund and offer students education in countries other than the United States. He also appears to maintain very friendly relationship with US-China Better Relations Coalition.
