>If you meet the Buddha, kill him.
What does he mean?
>>
In Zen teachings you have to avoid becoming attached to even the Buddha because the Buddha is also a delusion
>>

The Buddha that can be killed is not the true Buddha. It's important to test for authenticity.
>>
>>24966582
It's pretty obvious. Anyone posing as Buddha is a snake oil salesman, so kill it with fire.
>>
It means you'll go to avicii for a few trillion years

Buddhists avoid violence and killing but that don't mean they some kind of bitches. It urges you to fuck around and find that out for yourself.

Only a Buddha can kill the Buddha

The paradoxes of zen philosophy are supposed to cancel out your minds internal reasoning, given you a sense of clarity and focus. I don’t know why this is so hard for people tomunderstand.
>>
>>24967870
Because it royally fails in its goal

>>24967894
You sound raped

>hard for people tomunderstand

>>24966582
It means you’re the Buddha. Someone else can’t be the Buddha. It’s all on you.
>>
>>24967870
is it about breaking duality?
