How the hell can anyone take this religion seriously?Buddhism was the WEF own nothing and be happy of its time
>>529951344Still less cringe than jew worship.
>noo I need my THINGS I can't be happy without STUFF nooooo
>>529951344buddhism was created by a monarch to keep the population retarded and poor
>>529951434Buddhists are even gooder goys than Christians. They take it sooooo good you can do whatever you want to them. Who do you think made the dali lama?
It's not own nothing and be happy.It's do nothing and win.
>>529951496>dude just become a homeless beggar lmao
>>529951569how come every faggot preaching this bullcrap owns multiple houses, cars and private jetslast time I checked john lennon lived in a luxury apartment in new york, you never saw him sleeping under the underpass of a highway
>>529951496Yeah, life sucks without stuff. It sucks much less with stuff.
>>529951813buddhism doesn't say that you should own nothing, it's just a philosophy that tells you not to get overly attached to shit and it's mostly meant to help poor people ease their suffering. If you take it too seriously it has a bunch of bullshit like all religions, but don't tell me that you wouldn't rather live surrounded by buddhists than by jews
It's impossible to explain how based the Dharma is.
>>529951669>>529951993That's why your the perfect little goy because all they have to do is wave this in front of you and you are a slave. You will never be free.
>>529951344Kill yourself, hylic nigger.
>>529951344it's not a bad spiritual system if you're just dead set on being another animal in the environment, being a human is about overcoming internal and external nature though.
>>529951344detachment from the material is contrary to what the WEF state demands out of you.The Zionist Noahide world order will enslave you through your senses and your bodily needs for food and sex, through your ego as well, by exploiting your desire for status and a positive social standing.They will use porn and virtual sex, they will use foodchains and replace the local producers, they will establish a social credit system that works along with social media, then you will depend on the system in order to maintain your basic needs.Now if you practiced a spirituality that teaches detachment, the WEF wouldn't hold any leverage over you. You would be able to live on without being part of the system, most likely as a hermit who survives off from nature by having the minimum needs met, a man can survive months with a proper breathing technique plus some sunlight and nothing else
>>529951344Post body
>>529951344Buddhism is emo and gay.I live by the Tao and will die by the Tao.
>>529953202correct. sunlight isnt even necessary i would guess.
>>529953262Homeboy built like a ninja turtle.
Material dis-attachement just seems good for the most part, both for rich and poor. But idk, buddhism is maybe not perfect and there can be some arguments against it. Dharmic religions just seem more based than abrahamism anywaysBuddhist/dharmic lore also very gangster. I think there is a lore-teaching that buddha went down into the underworld and converted the king of the naga snakepeople to Dharma many thousands of years ago
>>529951434It’s nearly identical to ChristianityBoth are centered around the idea that reality is fake and your life is just a test for a reward in the afterlifeBoth teach you to be a cuck in all waysBoth are staffed by cynical atheist priests and pedos who like to sinmaxx while preaching to the masses about how to be a total bitchBoth religions have a heaven and hell (yes Buddhism has that, look it up)Both have monks Both have schizo theologyBut the values especially are identical in both religions
>>529951434>>529952483>>529953120>>529953130>>529953262Buddhism was created by a jeet. No further discussion is required. Telling any White person to believe in foreign religions is anti-White and there's no way around it. Simple as.
>>529951344There is no recourse for justice or cause for good works in a system dedicated to detachment from the world. Truly a pointless religion.
>>529953303Taoism is fake and gayOnly macchivelian atheistic STATE LEGALISM under Qin Shi Huang can save China.
>>529953523see >>529953667Anyone who promotes foreign religions is anti-White.
>>529953700>in a system dedicated to detachment from the world.You need to research what real Christians believe and not your American mega churches Start with the church fathers, ancient saints, early popes etc.
>>529951344so was Christianity. Jesus said give everything away and follow him. although everyone ignores that part
>>529953752nobody gives a shit about religion anymore, you should read about as many philosophies as possible and then try to live by what seems right to you
In Laotia we Buddhists like to tell a story... And you know just how much a Buddhist LOVE a story.. Anyways, there was a man being chased by a tiger. He ran off the cliff, but there was another tiger at the bottom of that cliff! The man grab a branch hanging off the side of the cliff, to save himself. On that branch was a strawberry. He picked that strawberry, and ate it, and it was the best strawberry he ever had.
>>529951344The WEF wants you to own nothing while you suffer in samsara. If you come to nirvikalpa samadhi, your being is recognized as infinite, unending and unchanging bliss. If you were to coom in every hot woman who ever existed and multiply the pleasure by a million it would still pale in comparison to this bliss. There's a difference between pleasure as an emotion/temporal thing and this bliss which doesn't depend on anything. It can't be interrupted or affected at all by anything temporal.That being said, most modern Buddhists are reddit-tier nihilists.
>>529953786While Christianity does promote a level of detachment from worldly concerns, it's done in moderation. It's about rejection of sin, not complete detachment. My point stands under this framework.
>>529953828He also said that God will bestow upon the faithful treasures and make them prosperous. Stop taking God's Word out of context.
>>529953828All the legit religions point to this because it's obvious. If you just live to accumulate you can feel that something is wrong with that. People give to charity and do philanthropy because even for atheists there's something inside that says that this is wrong to have so much. Why do people in third worlds with much less have happier lives with no suicides or population collapse? Having your life built around accumulating things is wicked. It's also just hollow. We are not happier than our ancestors because we have more stuff. Most people just want belonging and free time which require nothing but you have to be a good little consumer to keep this evil system going so maybe you can simulate that freedom a few days a year in vacation
>>529953667>Buddha was a jeetAbrahamic cope
>>529951344You want to know what i do every once in a while. I go over to the /x board. and i have a chuckle of the people practicing round eye Buddhism.its usually because they dont quite understand the concepts or the words being used. its like the there, their, and they're ways to describe something. its like they almost understand, but that level of understanding requires someone with more than a room temperature IQ.
>>529954067kino, meanwhile old testament stories are like:>a man backstabs his brother by taking advantage of him in a moment of weakness>then he does it again by fooling his ailing father>after getting caught he has to run away and go live with his uncle>he backstabs his uncle too for good measure, isn't he clever?>then he meets God in human form and wrestles him>he wins and God blesses him and promises a bunch of shit>his brother forgives him
>>529954067Can you believe this guy, he tells a joke at a funeral.
>>529951344Whats the alternative to buddhism then
>>529954943I think confusianism is interesting. actually very similar to aristotle in many ways.
>>529951434Fpbp
>>529954616He was literally an Indian prince
>>529951434Pajeets need to he targeted with a virus that kills them if they leave India
>>529954612>Having your life built around accumulating things is wicked. It's also just hollow.Yeah, being able to give each of your kids a free college education, a $20k deposit for a house and pay for a $10k wedding out of pocket sure is wicked and hollow. Make sure not to accumulate things, goy, nobody wants you competing for the limited slots on literally everything.It's suicidal in this world to not be materialistic. You just need to be smart enough to rank your family, friends and community over your materials. People first, things second doesn't mean things aren't important.
>>529953545what like a fundamental level. you have the reading of sacred texts. you have the prayer, you have some practices. but beyond that Christianity and Buddhism are totally different. Buddhism is closer to Hinduism with the only major differences in the words being used.
>>529955804You're not wrong, but how many people set out with a "people first, things second" mentality only to be swayed to "things first" as they go? Materialism is seductive and so more stringent generalizations against materialism are wiser in the vast majority of cases.
>>529951434True
>>529955943>because I said sochristniggers will never acknowledge the fact that their jewish religion is world denying. everything is done for the sake of entering jewish heaven and nothing in the world matters beyond that.
>>529951344>the real religion of peace>still kills islamists because islam is incompatible with civilizationThe west could learn from them
>>529953667WRONGBuddha was whiteShakyamuni = "Sage of the Shakyas (Scythians)"Depictions of Buddha accurately portray him with blue eyes
>>529951344>flagOP is of a sandnigger kind. They were always buttblasted about Buddhism.
>>529954246>While Christianity does promote a level of detachment from worldly concerns, it's done in moderationBuddhism is similar - it taught the "middle way" as a response to the excessive ascetism of Hindpoos at the time.Lay people are encouraged to just follow the dharma (live a virtuous life). All the weird ascetic practices and rejecting the world are reserved for monks and nuns.Which now that I think about it is similar to Christianity - it also has a tradition of monks and nuns starving themselves and being hermits in the desert and shit but lay people aren't expected to do that
>>529951496And then the wealthy Brahmin take everything you left on the table. Slave religion
>>529956513Huh. This is interesting. I will look more into this.
>>529953523>>529953202Nowadays attachment to material is fine. But the ability to detach from social media and forever scroll apps is a must have skill to be enlightened.
>>529956262the best way i can describe it, is that if God is really there for everyone. doesnt it seem kind of selfish that he only chose one group of people to make more blessed than others?like think about it, god is timeless, ever pervading, infinite, but ONLY intervened to help some slimy jew rats escape egypt.sure. I believe that.
>>529954831Esau was a self-made man. He managed to do well for himself even without being the chosen one.
>>529953667yeah, worship the brown jew instead of the aryan bhudda, totally good choice xD
The biggest problem in Buddhism and Hinduism is reincarnation.Reincarnation is the ultimate victim blaming doctrine. A child born with a disability? "Oh, they must have been a war criminal in their past life"A nation hit by an earthquake? "Just bad karma, bro"It turns empathy into judgment and justifies social hierarchy. It doesn't solve suffering; it validates it. Reincarnation is a brilliant scam invented by the elites to make the oppressed believe their suffering is their own fault so they won't rebel. It’s basically Eugenics with a spiritual coat of paintIt’s a bugged game where the devs keep banning new accounts for the IP history of the previous owner.The reason reincarnation was created is also funny. The Aryans from Iran invaded Northern India and established themselves as the ruling class. They invented this twisted 'Reincarnation' nonsense specifically to pacify the natives and prevent uprisings. The message was simple: 'You’re poor and oppressed because you were a scumbag in your past life. Accept your miserable place and don't even dream of social mobility or success.' There’s a reason why India, with all its vast land, resources, and massive population, failed to spark an Industrial Revolution. When your entire culture is built on 'accepting your karma' rather than changing your reality, you stay stuck in the mud for thousands of years while the rest of the world moves on.
>>529953262Teealc?
>>529953667It's a chink invention you lying leaf
>>529956044this. it's better to default to being against material things. even if you do have to have some it's good that your first instinct is "why do i need material things to be happy". that's all that's asked
>>529956262Dont even get me started on how Jews and Christians say that it took 40 years for Moses take his people 500 Miles to the promise land.a person could easily trek that in a WEEK. but no we have to play pretend that Moses WANDERED THE DESERT FOR FORTY FUCKING YEARS to make the story more dramatic and heartbreaking. oh those poor Jews, they must be retarded or something. If only they had google maps. They just reply that God wouldnt let them in. RETARD.
>>529955804You have a pathetic existence and the fact your first thought is to give your children into state indoctrination tells everything we need to know.
>>529956604And it was about rejecting the authority of the Brahmin caste and ritualism that came along with it. Which I think has parallels with Jesus' arguments with the Pharisees.The difference is Christianity preserves the authority of earlier scripture and centered on the figure of Jesus and empathized dependence on him for salvation.Buddhism outright rejected the authority of earlier scripture and the importance of worshipping the Hindu gods. And the Buddha's last words to his followers before he died were something like >Don't just take my word for it, figure it out for yourselves Which of course later generations ignored and some sects like Amida Buddhism even started worshipping him as a god like figure
>>529957612>The biggest problem in Buddhism and Hinduism is reincarnationProblem 1. all knowledge is gatekept by their brahmins Problem 2. Their retarded low caste followers give a shit what outsiders think about them, so they engage in racial /interfaith politiks here defeating the message of "letting go"
>>529957612Thats an interesting view of it, makes sense, but isnt the afterlife just as much of a scam? Specially when it comes with a rulebook that incentivizes mediocrity and suffering? Its like instead of previous crimes punishment its current misery reward.
>>529951344I swear Buddha just told people to chill out and they added all the bullshit later on.
>>529953018Yeah bro just eat cat food and live on the streets that'll show the jews
>>529958598>This faggot trying really hard to cope a false equivalence
>>529958751no, because Buddhism is originally a splinter from Hinduism, most of the bullshit existed prior.
>>529954246>While Christianity does promote a level of detachment from worldly concerns, it's done in moderation.Only in your American Protestant mc Christianity People who take their faith seriously have 0 moderation when it comes to detatchememt. The entire point of Christianity so the belief that "this life and everything in it is a test where God will judge you and decide if you should spend eternity in heaven or hell"So nothing in this life matters or is true and everything is a test set up by God.
>>529957183yeah but he was also a massive asshole, he always rubbed me the wrong way. Then again I'm applying modern views on a very old story, I'm sure that its moral wasn't meant to be "fuck over everyone for your own gain and win", especially since the two brothers eventually get reunited
>>529951434Why can't we get a religion which doesn't encourage you to be a cuck but instead promotes ambition and morals as a way for every individual to collectively advance society?
>>529951496>>529953018>Says he, devoting his time to an iternet forum, likely from a privately-owned device
I'm an Indian and have read a lot of about Hinduism and Buddhism. Buddhism is a generalization of Hinduism, where the gods and their tales are just another layer in the onion above humanity. It's quite brilliant actually. Us Brahmins were so afraid of it taking over and destroying the caste system that we stole features of Buddhism such as vegetarianism. Brahmins used to sacrifice horses at spiritual events. As with other religions where the end goal is to leave the world (like advaita vedanta) it succumbs to the fact that we live in the material world. A large part of the intellectual class spending their time trying to leave the world means that the Afghans come in and just destroy Nalanda thinking it was just a fort.I like Daoism
>>529958986>render unto Caesar what is Caesar's>be in the world but not of the worldThere's a separation of mundane life and spiritual life but you're not commanded to completely withdraw from mundane life and not work and not pay your taxes etc.
>>529957612Clearly you don't understand Buddhism if you don't know the basic story of Siddhartha where he left the temple of luxury, passing a sick man, and old man and a corpse. where he later sat under a tree to reach nirvana, he realized the 4 noble truths of life. all the men were suffering in some way of life. we all get sick, old and die. so suffering doesn't make you special or unique (except even i would say that some people do have it pretty bad in life). that were all going to suffer. so to get over your predicament of knowing that bad stuff happens is to reach nirvana, which essentially is a state of being that we don't normally exist in because we are too busy suffering. and to maintain that through your life. where reincarnation comes in, is that a big issue with fear, which can fuel suffering is death. but if you believe in reincarnation then it doesn't matter. its just one of the phases of life. You can easily draw parallels between this and Christ who also knew that this life we live is just one and there is an eternal afterlife. which could be perceived as reincarnation. but people will nitpick the differences. you know especially when you do good you go to heaven and you do bad you go to hell. but what would a Christian know about karma or something. I mean that story of the Buddha is literally the first story of Buddhism that most people learn.
>>529951344may you be reborn as an indian
>>529951344It's about relinquishing senseless attachment, not necessarily ridding yourself of useful things. I think it's quite helpful even to just read about it, puts things into perspective.
>>529959140Hindus have a lot of respect for Buddhism, and vice versa. The history of Thai Buddhism for example is full of strong Indian influence. As a foreigner here I feel that Hinduism is more primitive and Buddhism more refined.>>529959103Yeah, sadly Internet cafes are a thing of the past.
>>529958751Rituals give people a sense of cultural grounding. That's why they've always been so important in every religion. Once modern Christianity embraced the "God is completely abstract and whatever you want him/her to be", it lost its meaning for millions of young people. Humans are wired to show devotion to idols, whether that idol is a big black box in Mecca, Christ on a stick, a gold Buddha, or the elephant Ganesh.
>>529957612Reincarnation in Buddhism doesn't make sense to me.The Hindpoos believe the soul is eternal and liberation/salvation is reuniting with Brahma (a sort of impersonal, "ultimate being" type of god). Or recognizing your soul was always a piece of Brahma and your separation from it was an illusion.Buddhism teaches even the self is an illusion. There's no eternal soul or essence that's "you" from reincarnation to reincarnation. It's just a bundle of karmic causes and effects and incoherent desires.If the thing that's getting reincarnated isn't "me" why should I give a shit about the next reincarnation or getting off the cycle of death and rebirth? Idk.And when you look into Zen Buddhism it takes an almost atheist bent, emphasizes enlightenment right now in the life and speaks in paradoxes you can't really nail down.
>>529957612>Reincarnation is the ultimate victim blaming doctrine.Something isn't true on false depending on how it makes you feel. In samsaric religions, karma is a law of cause and effect directly observed by accomplished spiritual practitioners as a consequence of supermundane insight. If you don't believe in it on some logical basis that fair but "I don't like how it makes me feel" is a poor argument.
>>529951344What the Buddha taught isn't a religion and you know nothing about it you just made shit up and are arguing with yourself.
>>529957612>Reincarnation is the ultimate victim blaming doctrine.WTF I love reincarnation now. Victim blaming is usually at least partially correct. The social stigma against it is a psy-op against personal accountability.
>>529951344Medieval christians were also forced by the church to be vegetarian for significant portions of the year. It probably would have been the whole year if European diets were less meat based to begin with. And christian teachings are also very pacifistic and life denying. Buddhism is cucked for sure. But it's just a somewhat worse version of stoicism (also cucked). Christianity is that plus worshiping the most evil race to ever exist.
>>529959875It is a religion and you are lying to yourself & others by claiming that it isn't.It is yet another lie for the goyim to consume.
>>529951344retard shill
>>529951344also notice how all the rabbi goldsteins & bots took over a thread about Buddhism to deny Jesus Christ.They're just pitiful.
>>529960443Listen if you have questions about it I can answer them but you're just making shit up. You need at least a basic understanding of something before you can criticise it. You're saying 2+2=5 like a retard.
>>529959434Considering that Christianity is the Truth and everything else is a lie made up by deluded men, a Christian truly knows "karma" better than the inventors & cultists of the concept.>>529960997If you are going to seethe in anger because I'm telling you the truth and you refuse to accept it, the problem lies with you and you need to repent.
>>529961102Okay retard.
>>529951434Fippy bippy rarely ever wrong
>>529961102>It's the truth because this book says so>If you disagree you're a heretic Ok bro
>>529959781Yes, in Hinduism reincarnation is slightly different in perception. but the same also. so your body is just a vessel to host your spirit, and your soul is that which you do with the body. so the spirit. which is in all things. drops the body and returns to brahma. he takes no prisoners (but if you know some stories like hanuman then there is that exception). All must return to that source. people get attached to their bodies, or their lives or their things (which leads to suffering) and they like to know if they reincarnate that they get their things back. this is where I would say that Hinduism is actually suppose to be monotheistic, but there is billions of gods in deities that all come through Brahma. The misconception that Buddhism is "Atheist" is just and old wives tale of misinformation. its literally full of God and Demons and stories of divinity just like any other faith. The Idea that arises is that people are selfish because they want to reach nirvana, that they reject suffering of others. which isn't quite the way its suppose to be. basically practice your goodness by meditation to clean your personal life the same way you polish a mirror. so that your reflection is clear. thus when you are that, you make it easier for others to be that.
>>529960997How is it not a religion, faggot?
>>529961193Stop hating yourself, learn to forgive yourself, that'll help get rid of your suicidal ideations too.>>529961215It's the Truth because God said so, you can keep denying it but that is how you will lose your life, permanently.
>>529955206I agree desu, a lot of Buddhist nations could use Confucianism to push themselves harder
>>529951434fpbp/thread
>>529951509Same as the reason the romans imposed christianity on Europeans.
>>529961366How do you know God said so? By reading a book written by men. Or maybe you didn't even read it yourself you just listened to what other men told you about it.
