Redpill me on eastern/oriental mysticism and philosophy. Been reading some of this and seems pretty interesting. I don't see why these ancient teachings would conflict with western philosophy, in fact they seem to perfectly compliment each other
>chat, what did evola say about this.

>>541349493reincarnation makes more logical sense than final judgement and afterlife
>>541349493They make great vst.
I don’t believe in any of it. I have my own reasonings behind somethings and I don’t believe in karma and reincarnation because those are ridiculous concepts.
>>541349493Eastern mysticism is basically spiritual compliance to make administration run smoother. Buddism is about accwpting sufferingTaoism is about que sera seraAnd confusionism is about the virtue of heirarchyAdd a few "spirits" to color folklore and fairytales to illustrate eastern values.
theyre buddist monks
>>541351060>Eastern mysticism is basically spiritual compliance to make administration run smoother.That's all religions.They're still less gay then the deserts cults
>>541349493The Bible is a work on eastern esotericism, that and syncretism is why they don’t conflict most of the time.
Before Jesus came demons roamed the earth and fucked with the humans and made them worship them. >they still doI was into all that shit. I know a lot of it. I had to unlearn all of it. Also notice how it's always opposite of what the bible says you should do>because demons always want you to do the opposite of what God wants you to doICXC NIKA

>>541349493Go ask ol' Schopy
>>541349708>>541353160well what did they say you vague posting faggots, i'm about to go for a walk
>>541351060>Buddism is about accwpting sufferingIt's a simplification. It's more about understanding what suffering/dissatisfaction is on a fundamental level, since these feeling permeates everything in life and drive your actions.
>>541349493Buddhism perfectly compliments Neoplatonism and Christianity because all three affirm that the ground of existence is Love, but it explicitly rejects modern sophistry which argues that reality has no grounding. When Buddhists say that this world is comprised of illusions they never mean that nothing exists at all, rather they always mean that everything that exists has a dependent existence and is not self-existing. All existence relates back to Sunyata, which is compassion itself. Anyone who compares Buddhism to nihilism has never studied it, so that's something to watch out for because most westerners project modern thought onto Buddhism without realizing that it violently rejects their materialism.
>>541351034>I don’t believe in karmaIs that how you justify fucking poor children?
Honestly, I've been living the Daoist style for a good while now. The Tao Te Ching is very digestible, but it gives you a lot to think and chew on. Even if you don't take the religious/supernatural elements at face value, the philosophical topics are still top-tier.
>>541351312Listen to the ringing in your ears, when a thought distracts you from this. Go back to listening to the ringing. RepeatIt's literally this simple and takes about a year. But you won't do it....it's too hard and your weak
>>541349493unironically read the book Falun Gong. If you look, there are free to read version. People say whatever, but definitely some powerful stuff in there. It straightened out my life in a couple of weeks. You just practice at home. Definitely some woo, but you get to experience it, so not some blind faith philosophy only.

>>541349493You think about nothing until you have a psychotic break with reality (derealization). Then you try to kill yourself. There you go. So deep.

>>541349493>Eastern mysticism Not a monolith. Buddhism is essentially a multitude of vastly wildly different religions with conflicting focuses, goals, and eschatology. Zen Buddhism, for example, is largely atheistic with little concern over reverence for specific deities, while Tibetan Buddhism places extreme emphasis on the reverence and appeasement of particular gods, and they have extremely different rituals from each other because of this. >philosophyUnlike in the west, eastern philosophies are in themselves religions that aren't separated from rituals and views on cosmology and creation myths. Taoism and Confucianism, for example, are simultaneously both philosophies and religions. In any case, "western philosophy" also isn't monolithic; a Stoic and an Epicurean have antithetical notions over the value of interpersonal discipline, for example.

I Ching is cool, Jung wrote the forward to the best translation (Wilhelm)
>>541358177Angkor Wat is pretty cool, so's Kinkakuji
>>541349493There is a God of the universe. His son Jesus is the narrow gate. But Christians do him no justice. I was basically practicing entry level Buddhism New Age for 10 years to treat mental issues and body healing. I had an enlightenment in 2022 and in the months following sought ought a Jesus visitation or God encounter so he could explain his side.Jesus showed up about 3-4 months later and he is definitely the red letter Bible Jesus. It took visitations from Jesus because I knew the Bible so well he couldn't exist from growing up around shit Christians.No denomination is correct, only a relationship with Jesus can get a person into heaven. Logically God of the Bible cannot exist, but he showed up.For the die hards a centurion in Acts had an angel show up and tell him to convert. God will save those who look for him. That is all the catering I will do for them today.I am having to relearn the Bible from the lies I was taught growing up. Calvinism is bullshit, so is Mormon and JW's. Avoid the cults and indoctrination only a relationship with Jesus counts. I don't listen to pastors so I won't listen to a Pope either.The speed run is Jesus but if you are spiritual it will take time maybe to make sure the conversion is authentic. So if you meditate you should be able to get a visitation or hear from God, (he will tell you are loved and give Holy Spirit). If you want to talk to God be a Buddhist basically. Jesus gave me deliverance for night because of the humility I learned in Buddhism. Walk with Jesus God has better synchronicity than you will have.
