I did a short stint in bhuddism, let me spoil the ending for you: your desire to rid yourself of desire was also a desire. I caught on to the fact that new desire was trapping me in the karmic cycle and nixed it before it got out of hand.

Interesting ten minutes, but hardly a robust philosophy. Besides, by the time you achieve your goal, you didn’t even want to anyways.

I’ll stick with Jesus.

no offense, but this some profound revelation as much as like the opening set up for a whole bunch of dialogue. the bigger issue spirtual materialism or lifestyle buddhism in the western fad sense, but even that is covered to a degree. all that stuff about not making your home one raft that was just meant to carry you to the other side of the river and all that

that said some of the eastern buddhism seems to have degenerated as well. like I personally dislike some of the aspect of tibetan buddhism and think the thai buddhism, with that: and then his horse went to heaven and became a god is bullshit as well. is not like I've got it figured out myself either, but I think maybe people should look like for the simple truths. like the idea of hatred greed and delusional providing the kind of momentum that keeps the wheel of suffering turning. not necessarily in the sense that you're feeling agony constantly, but that type of chronic dissatisfaction that makes us run away looking for something or other. but truth is nothing is going to fulfill you and you would have been dissatified either way, even you got everything you wanted. like spiritual enlightenment which is just another thing you'd lose eventually given how it's something that supposedly attained.

Buddhism is just a meme to materialise negative consequences to a post-death state and adjust behaviour accordingly
There's a reason it spread as a 2nd class belief than as a full on religion, and that's because it only serves as a loose moral-enforcing compass, rather than a social power structure.
It's also why "buddhist" doesn't mean shit because buddhism is everywhere and mixed underneath a boatload of actual religions and moral standards which it doesn't actually dictate.
If these places had a morality against shitting in the drinking water, buddhism would have them not throw their corpses there too. But it's not more than that.

taoism reminds a bit of stoicism. the combination of stoicism and some buddhist underpinnings seems much closer to the european soul than christianity. in asia the combination of daoism and buddhism let chan and zen I suppose. But also gotta differentiate between philosophical daoism and the kind of degenerate folksy type with wizards and shit trying to speak to ghosts. originally it was more like an anti-authoritarian collection of truisms of sorts dealing with dealing with the dynamics of change that were are to articulate without sounding kind cryptic. hence the poetic streak about cripples, and old guys diving into river whirls, or old trees not getting chopped down because they're seen as useless besides providing shade. t

here's also varying ideas in terms of effort. like not pulling on grass in order to make grow faster, but maybe also attaining effortlessness through long periods of hard practice. where as laotse himself argued the secret is not trying in the first place, but just doing it.

谷神不死,是謂玄牝。玄牝之門,是謂天地根。綿綿若存,用之不勤。

(The completion of material forms)
The valley spirit dies not, aye the same;
The female mystery thus do we name.
Its gate, from which at first they issued forth,
Is called the root from which grew heaven and earth.
Long and unbroken does its power remain,
Used gently, and without the touch of pain.

now the english translation is bound to rhyme and as pleasant as it is i thus i wonder about the accuracy of the interpetation

i have it as a book, translated in another language, which foregoes the rhyming for more accuracy

Been one for 3 years and I made peace with the fact that I won't get along with normies or get a gf after a shitty experience with a mentally ill turbonormalfag pseudo-feminist lukewarm christian. In another age I would've been a scholar or a priest but now I'm just an autist who spends his days cramming japanese words through eroge and shitposting. I guess in a former life I must've been Julius Evola or someone who used to follow him, but now that's the lot I've been assigned. Could be worse, at least I don't have to flip burgers or deal with lobotomized normies.

I dunno. Is definitely an issue and there's a lot of translations, some written by christians theologists and such. even with german and english there's a significant misunderstandings translating aufklärung as enlightenment when germans differentiate the philosophical enlightenement of thinking for yourself and erleuchtung that's meant to mean spiritual illumination. where as english usually uses enlightenment more interchangably. can't imagine it's easier with chinese and some kind poetic text featuring abstract points and parabals using cultural memes and such.

Most of it degenerated. It was made more palatable by Mahayana for general populace and became typical of religion just a funeral service, stuff to do because of trafition, a way to do politics and freeload your ass through life. I would say Western Buddhism is more self-critical, embraces cause and effect teachings better and still has a lot of neophyte enthusiasm about the stuff you're supposed to do under Buddhism i.e. practicing to gain enlightenment.

This Buddhism is shit. Why would you want to lack desire? Your a fucking arrow and you are born to conquer create and succeed. The fact that you can never satisfy it fully is good because it gives you a reason to be alive.

The best parts are Buddhism is already covered by stoicism which has already had its best parts infused into the normal culture.

It's far worse than that, the kike on a stick favorite saying is quite correct. Do unto others as you would have done to you. This is reality, you are interacting with yourself, fragments of whole. Being nice to other life forms is just making life better for yourself later. Too bad retards on this planet lack the depth to see it. I mean everyone is tripping on DMT every night and yet these faggots have no spirituality. Abrahamic religion is for NPC faggots.

there has to be a space between the word and the (tm)

for instance, Christianity (tm), is great for america (R)(tm)(C), because it helps keep the people pacified.
see, the (R)(tm)(C) can be placed together, because they're all identifiers, of the commercial aspect of the [word] (tm)

this is how you must express all Truths (tm), both for legibility, and for uniformity.

Mahayana is buddhism that got mixed with religion when it spread around china. The core is buddhist but the practices aren't. If you want just plain buddhism you really have to stick to the 3 main theravada nikaya. It's unavoidable that humans will start mixing bullshit into buddhism after 2500 years. We're extremely lucky that the original core teachings haven't changed.

If by 'better' you mean logical consistency, then yes, the Buddha's Dharma is objectively better than theism and mono-theism in particular. Moral judgments however are always subjective and many people who lack the intellectual or psychological prerequisites for the stricter traditions of Buddhism are better served by religions that provide them more consoling narratives.
