I don't understand what he is trying to say. He mentions transcendence, but I don't think the goal of transcendence is ever to remain the same. How is separating your self from the concept of humanity a bad thing?

There are entire monastic traditions in Catholicism that are about rejecting both pleasure and worldly suffering in the seeking of spiritual purity and enlightenment.
>>
>>18532655
The Catholic church approves of Zen Buddhism, though.
Regardless, this self-satisfied babble doesn't even convince the speaker much less anyone else.
>>
>>18533673
If I had to think like a christian, I'd guess that being human and transcendent at the same time is ideal, because jesus was both fully god and fully human, and this transendence wouldn't necessarily lead to an end of suffering

Well then why do I see ne catholic swinger club? I guess that one is secret. Also then why should catholic priest not have children? Isnt it joyful to have children? Without children you literally dont have a future.

By "desire" they mean the chronic dissatisfaction that drive Western material greed.
>>
>>18534488
Yeah and thats a good thing. Desire is literally what you want, the same thing. If you get more what you want then you have more success. This is not limited to hedonistic but extends to platonic and spiritual desires. You need to take the wholistic Hedonist Pill.
>>
>>18534529

It's a good thing for the people who own you and other human cattle, that's why even your religious leaders peddle mindless material greed.

>Literally you desire to argue against me and you follow that desire
Obviously, but unlike you, I'm capable of reflection so I can see that the habit of arguing with barely sentient "people" like you is just another source of dukkha.
>>
>>18534544
You are on 4chan. You must enjoy some dukkha. This site is full of contrarianism and deceit.

Ok. Again, I'm not sure what your low-IQ post is supposed to highlight besides the fact that you're brown and incapable of self-reflection.

Then why are you getting filtered by basic self-awareness like a nigger?
>>
>>18532832
this. european atheist nations dont have the tranny problem nearly as bad as christian ones
>>
>>18534650
European "atheist nations" (by which you mean atheists destroying the remnants of Christian nations) have a hundred problems (including rampant sexual degeneracy) but they're all direct consequences of Christianity insofar as they're reactions to it.
>>
Why can't the christians on this board stop thinking about trannies? No one gives a fuck about trannies anymore, that culture war talking point is 10 years old. Trannies make up 0.03% of the population. They were already banned from sporting leagues (by atheist organizations mind you). It's over. God still does not exist and Christians still have the second lowest average IQ of any demographic, only higher than Muslims.
>>
>>18534645
What self awareness are you talking about? I think I made a concise argument. Buddhists go around say to act without desire but that seems impossible to me. If you act then you desire that action except maybe for reflexes of which it then can be said that your body desires to act those. Thusly I dont get what you mean by no desire. You know you can desire moderation too? To me thats also a desire. Or desire not to desire. Seems like you cant escape desire. It only matters what you desire but if you want to change that then thats also already a desire you must have beforehand. So desire is a given that fundamentally cant be changed except maybe if you die but then nobody seems to know what happens anyways.
>>
>>18534687
>What self awareness are you talking about?
The self-awareness it takes to realize you harbor and indulge desires for reasons that have nothing to do with what's actually good for you and that being aware of this doesn't magically overturn the logic of behavior.

>Buddhists go around say to act without desire
No, they don't. They simply try to redirect the desire to escape suffering towards something that actually helps you escape suffering.
>>
>>18534708
Okay but some desires also lead to happiness and fulfillment. It really depends I agree on that. But my fundamental desires I cant change. So maybe I should just acceot my destiny in so far as my desires are immutable.
>>
>>18534749
>some desires also lead to happiness and fulfillment.
Two More Weeks. And in the meanwhile, be sure to feed the technocapitalist system more of your lifeblood because your rulers aren't quite fulfilled yet.
>>
>>18534749
Happiness and 'fulfillment' are also impermanent. The whole point is to realize impermanence

Suffering is also impermanent. I think we dont even really disagree. Its just a question of focus.

You will never be the one who calls the shorts. They will always have total leverage over you. They will always control every aspect of your life. They will always control every aspect of your perception. You will always be their slave because you embrace the qualities they exploit as a faux ideology thinking it somehow makes you better than the other cattle who does the same unconsciously.

>>18534488
I think this is more of a critique of less than stellar interpretation of utilitarianism than Buddhism. Buddhists are ok with desires like desiging to be compassionate or be patient. They oppose Tania or ignorant craving to be a self, essence or substance.

This explains tanha.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DFzF9RlYEz4&list=PLKuMaHOvHA4rag4t-jjdbeDdye5nb0rlF&index=2

From a practioners view.

https://www.lamayeshe.com/article/chapter/fourth-discourse-renouncing-desire


I think the Pope is seeming to critique some type of preference utilitarianism specifically.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fH45cfJMLnM&t=185s
>>
>>18532655
Leo can easily refuted by this one question: If desire is impossible without suffering, will there be suffering in heaven?
>>
For reference, the Buddhist view would be more like some thoughts, actions, and habits reflect tanha, craving to be an essence, substance or self and that causes dukkha. Virtues like patience and kindness will be done intentionally but eventually no such intent is done and one simply does them automatically. They create the conditions for insight and wisdom.

Does it work? Did they find enlightenment?
>>
>>18532655
The goal doesn't imply it should be reached, only that one ought strive for it.
The calling of Christianity is not to become Jesus, it's to become as closer to Jesus as one can.

I imagine somewhere down the line people misinerpreted Buddhism as "a true Buddhist reaches enlightment" instead of the original "ry to act more like the Buddha and your life will improve."
>>
>>18537100
Buddhism always had a soteriolgoical view point. The goal itself though is held to be a rational one but not necessarily a goal a being can have given their kleshas or mental defilements. They as a result tend to hold that lay practice will naturally produce the belief if given enough time.
