i like schopenhauer, but if i’m being honest i cannot see life as suffering. i can understand the point of view, but can’t truthfully agree. and in the end this line of thought forces me into thinking itcomes down to something below (above?) philosophy. schopenhauer (though apparently having a very lively youth as far as girls go) was unattractive. and maybe that goes very far in explaining his implicit outlook.
Ons says life is suffering and that's a GOOD THING since it leads to enlightenment, that's why being reincarnated as a god is not considered helpful in Buddhism because gods don't suffer enough to seek enlightenment.>Every suffering is a buddha-seed, because suffering impels mortals to seek wisdom. But you can only say that suffering gives rise to buddhahood. You can’t say that suffering is buddhahood. Your body and mind are the field. Suffering is the seed, wisdom the sprout, and buddhahood the grain.But!>To be impartial means to look on suffering as no different from nirvana, because the nature of both is emptiness.-The Zen Teachings of Bodhidharma
>>25002613>Buddha: Life is suffering, so here's how end it*>Schopenhauer: Life is suffering but a calm life is fine

>>25003426>Buddha teaches you how to transcend mortality and become a God.But the goal of Buddhism is to cease existence entirely, not become a god. You're thinking of Mormonism.

Buddhism is the "motte and bailey" of religions. Because there are so many disparate schools you can claim and reject many things. At least Islam, Judaism, and Christianity have some kind of core doctrine
>>25005535>At least Islam, Judaism, and Christianity have some kind of core doctrineyes but they're for pseudlets and low-castes such as yourself
>>25005548You're only going to get word salad from him.
>>25005535Buddhism has SOME core dogmata cross all sects. But unlike other religions, they are defined by what is unknown. Buddha defined them by being questions he refused to answer saying, "It doesn't further", which is taken to mean it doesn't benefit to think about because it will just cause baseless speculation and division. It can also be understood to means it has nothing to do with the practice of Buddhism so he's not the one to answer it. Or simply that he doesn't know and doesn't care. They are the ten indeterminates1. Is the cosmos eternal?2. Is the cosmos not eternal?3. Is the cosmos infinite?4. Is the cosmos not infinite?5. Are we nothing but our bodies?6. Do we have non-physical self?7. Does a Buddha exist after death?8. Does a Buddha perish when he dies?9. Does a Buddha both exist and not exist after death?10. Does a Buddha neither exist nor not exist after he dies?There are also the imponderables which Buddha said is pointless to put up into words because it will only actually harm understanding and lead to semantic debates. The imponderables include what is the mechanism of karma, is there a creator, and so forth.
>>25005562Those are just 5 questions repeated twice in the affirmative/negative
The whole meme is wrong, so it leads to a wrong discussion. The Buddha never said "life is suffering", the first Noble Truth is different:> Because the Buddha does teach the way to put an end to suffering. He doesn’t spend a lot of time focusing on issues that are beside the point. His very first sermon went straight to the point: “This is going to all be about suffering and the end of suffering.” His first noble truth, which is often misrepresented as, “Life is suffering,” actually says simply, “There is suffering” and identifies what it is: the act of clinging. Wherever there’s clinging, there’s suffering. And what causes the clinging? Craving. Which is why we have a path to put an end to craving.https://www.dhammatalks.org/audio/evening/2013/130816-the-brightness-of-life.html
>>25005585Yep, because the guy asking kept trying to get around Buddha refusing to answer
>>25005562>Buddhism has SOME core dogmata cross all sectsThose are not really pan-Buddhist dogmas as some Mahayana and Vayrayana sects do have definitive answers to those questions
>>25005970If you include moonies with Christian and Druze with Muslim
>>25005985Not a great analogy as Mahayana and Vajrayana constitute something like 85-90% of all Buddhists on the planet, and almost all Buddhist philosophy has originated from them too.
>>25001982life is suffering but goodlife is suffering is badsollipsism can be expressed only through the first
Most religions are pretty simple and straightforward. Instead of simply practicing their beliefs, people divert and mess things up.
