Noble Truths TLDR; life is suffering, you desire because you suffer, there is a way to end desire thereby ending sufferingEight Fold Path TLDR; Act rightly, do the sneedfulHonestly, it seems like the Buddha was just an ordinary man that got way too excited to find out life fucking sucks, like, no shit Sherlock.The Buddha: OMG, BRO, I SNEED TO TELL YOU SOMETHING VERY IMPORTANT!Disciples: Yes, what is it?The Buddha: LIFE FUCKING SUCKS BRO, ISN'T THAT FUCKING CRAZY YO?Disciples: OMG, WOW SO PROFOUND, MUCH IMPRESS, CAN WE MAKE A RELIGION OUT OF THIS?
>>18511828*you suffer because you desire
How many Buddhism threads are you going to make?Did you get bullied by a Buddhist as a child or something?
>>18511832Yes. A monk cut off my finger and I didn't get an orgasmic epiphany from it.
>>18511828Don't care. Still a Buddhist
>>18511828What makes Lord Gautama notable isn't that he figured out life is an endless cycle of suffering, plenty of people already believed that at the time. It's that he found an effective method for ending the cycle suffering.Also Fatso in your image there isn't Lord Gautama. He was a Chinese monk who some Buddhists believe will eventually reincarnate as the next Buddha.
>>18511828I like how the mods just let the botfarm charged with ruining this board make a dozen of these obvious spambot threads.
>>18511865Same. Refutal by trivialization does not work with Buddhism, there is always something important behind the corner.
