Your “DNA” changes with suffering. More suffering brings more changes. As you age, the children you have will have different adaptions to try to overcome that suffering. Your “soul” and your “consciousness” are one and the same.

Your meaning for being here is to survive longer than your parents, while having children that will survive longer than you.

Your conscious/subconscious duality is as left brain/right brain as being left and right dominant. Schizophrenia is just a symptom of someone giving the spotlight to the wrong one.

Wherefore I say unto you, All manner of sin and blasphemy shall be forgiven unto men: but the blasphemy against the Holy Ghost shall not be forgiven unto men.

And whosoever speaketh a word against the Son of man, it shall be forgiven him: but whosoever speaketh against the Holy Ghost, it shall not be forgiven him, neither in this world, neither in the world to come.

Either make the tree good, and his fruit good; or else make the tree corrupt, and his fruit corrupt: for the tree is known by his fruit.
O generation of vipers, how can ye, being evil, speak good things? for out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaketh.

A good man out of the good treasure of the heart bringeth forth good things: and an evil man out of the evil treasure bringeth forth evil things.
But I say unto you, That every idle word that men shall speak, they shall give account thereof in the day of judgment.

For by thy words thou shalt be justified, and by thy words thou shalt be condemned.

The way I like to put it is that Buddhism is just self neutering practice. You just become a shell of yourself, a shell of what you could have been.

I'm sure Satan has been ROFLing for the last 2000 years.

>buddhism isn't about escapism but equanimity

Equanimity:
>calmness and composure, especially in a difficult situation

Last time I checked Buddhists seclude themselves away from people and everyday life, so they are ironically avoiding difficult situations.

Why don't they try all of their buddhist practices while living among everyday people, while working a soul killing wage slave job, being surrounded by beautiful women everyday, etc?

Like I said, it's just a denial of reality, it's a coping mechanism, and it can only be facilitated if you avoid reality by avoiding people and human nature.

Your equanimity definition doesn't fit. Running away to some secluded location away from other people is literally escapism.

You're just demonstrating you know nothing about buddhism. Being secluded isn't something all practicing buddhists do, and even in "seclusion" they still experience as many difficult situations as anyone else, not only externally but internally through their meditation praxis.

"bUt THeYre rUnNinG AwaY", anon, no one can escape the world, there's no running away from it. The buddhist dharma is all about the cultivation of insight on the world (vipassana) and the cultivation of concentration on the world (shamatha), and it's all for the sole purpose of understanding and skillful management, there's no "ego death", no throwing the shit out the window and run hide. Buddhism is closer to stoicism than christianity or any of the abrahamic traditions will ever be, i always find it funny how people who shit on buddhism tend ot jerk it to stoicism.

And as a side note equanimity's usage is perfectly correct, it's also commonly used to describe some of the most important states of buddhist meditation.

Agreed. Ahaya translates into I AM (THAT I AM).

My father is enternally changeless and whole in his being.

When you go on the rampage and act like a edgy "Satanist" nigga (ironic, because Satanama translates into indwelling truth/my true identity), you are not ridiculing our father, but his imitator, who is also known as "the father of lie(s)".

>>37857174
>Being secluded isn't something all practicing buddhists do
Yes and that's because the practice has been watered down over time and lost all of it's strictness and meaning to accomodate the progressing of a modern era.

This is why in the far future there will be retards like yourself that meditate within a virtual reality and they will call themselves "enlightened" and "buddhists".

This is actually one of the amusing things that we can all see happening to beliefs systems (religions). They all crumble under the pressure of modernization and they all give leeway to their beliefs, rules, conduct, etc in order to be more accomodating the the avergae person.

This becomes more and more extreme, but it happens at such a relatively slow place that the new Point A of extreme changes doesn't look that far off from the approaching Point B. But if you looked at the Point A from 500 years ago it's drastically different.

This is why you can see Christians today saying there is nothing wrong with homosexuality when their own book says that gays must be killed (Example - Leviticus 20:13).

The exact same thing has happened and is happening to Buddism, but like I said, people like you don't think introspectively, so you don't see these changes as a flaw, you don't see the changes that are coming, you don't see a problem with it.

This is why 500 years from now Buddhism will be a completely bastardized version of itself, just like Christianity.

>>37857096
What you posted doesn't go against anything I said. I said that escapism is secluding yourself, and equanimity would be to remain a part of society and continue your practice. But my point is, most Buddhists fail and make up convenient rules for themselves when they try to do that.
>>
>would Lucifer really do that? Ridicule Jehovah on the internet?

hmm, yes.
>>
>>37857257
So why are you promoting the god who says "I am that I am"?
>>
>>37857286

It wasn't Yahweh, who revealed himself to Moses.

Yahweh is separate/external, the god of the pharisees, the imitator of the indwelling truth.

I am that I am is the indwelling god, the truth manifestation, the holy trinity, consisting of the observer, the mind and the heart. Combine those three and you get the father, the only truth manifestation there is.

>>37857271
So you're moving the goalposts to a completely new location because you can't accept the fact that you have a misinformed view on buddhism. You're stretching this too far so i'll be quick with it, the buddhist tradition is preserved in the tripitaka and the meditative praxis is further preserved in practical manuals such as the vissuddhimagga and vimuttimagga. No one's stopping anyone from being a full fledged traditional buddhist just like no one's stopping anyone from being a fundamentalist practicing christian.

What, you're saying i lack introspection because i haven't noticed that eastern traditions have become a diluted product in the west and western traditions a political soulless tool? I don't see how that has anything to do with me, i source my practice correctly.

>No one's stopping anyone from being a full fledged traditional buddhist just like no one's stopping anyone from being a fundamentalist practicing christian
The entire point of religious and spiritual practice is that IT DOES STOP PEOPLE, that's literally what they are about.

If they fail to do that, they will cease to exist over time, or lose their meaning completely.

>What, you're saying i lack introspection because i haven't noticed that eastern traditions have become a diluted product in the west and western traditions a political soulless tool? I don't see how that has anything to do with me, i source my practice correctly.
You THINK you do, but you likely don't.

Now get back to using the internet, watching Netflix and ordering pizza, and tell me about how strict your practice is lol.

>>37857430
>I don't know if you're stupid, 12 or both.
I know that you are a dishonest person though, seeing as you left out the "in the far future part".

As society advances, religious belief systems start making more and more exceptions, and giving themselves more and more "passes" to incorporate modernism into their framework. That is a huge flaw, and people don't see it as extreme because they are already existing in world where the extreme changes have already happened and from their frame of reference the new change that is on the horizon is "tame" or "minor" in comparison to where the practice already is.

Only those with self awareness will look back at the past and admit to themselves - "Oh shit, maybe most of us are already doing this shit wrong, look at how many exceptions we've already made for ourselves. Were clearly no longer a strict belief system".

You can keep coping and telling yourself "I'm doing it right".

But, like I already said (I'll quote myself to save some time):

Jesus and the Nazareth sect he preached with were associated with another sect that rejected the jewish scripture as divinely inspired and though that the scribes had ruined Moses and Abraham's teachings.

First of all, learn how to summarize your points, no one wants to read your self serving, discombobulated ramblings every 3 minutes.

Second of all, there's no point in arguing with someone who, in a fit of delusion, thinks they know what you're thinking better than you do yourself. We're talking about buddhism here and it's already been established that the tradition is preserved and accessible, i don't know why the fuck are you going on these (irrelevant to the topic) tangents, i think you're trying to have a monologue moment with yourself because i don't see how any of your shit connects to the narrative at hand (and also you express yourself like shit, coming from an ESL).

>Now get back to using the internet, watching Netflix and ordering pizza, and tell me about how strict your practice is lol

The thing with Buddhism is it's so selfish. The entire point is to not suffer, which is rewarding obviously but it doesn't have those fundamentals that show care and empathy for the world around. Yes, it probably tells you to treat people well and help the poor and stuff like that, but it is void of a true motivation to be a light within the world. The main focus seems to be achieving nirvannah, which is a state which makes you feel good. All the other principals about it are in the end, meant to bring you to a place mentally where you don't suffer. That's the end goal. It's an inward focused religion and the entire point of it is "my " experience.

Love is all about your union with others. Why would the point of all living be for individual creatures to reach a state of fullfillment? It completely ignores that we are on a planet with other people and have more than a duty to ourselves.

>>37857706
Bodhisattvas. But you can't really talk enlightenment and the cessation of attachment to people who aren't there for it. It's a self-revelation. Regardless the general idea of Buddhism is the cessation of suffering. Could be reasoned out that would extend to others.

This is the problem with the dogmas of organized religion. They cause people to think in binaries, and expectations of things being a certain way. The truth is the spiritual path is an entirely unique journey for each seeker. These things rely on ineffable mysticism at their core.

Hmm, I never thought of Buddhism in leftist political way but it makes sense.

A big problem is that western interpretation of Buddhism is vastly different than how it's practiced in the East.

We have yoga studio Buddhism with retreats, feel good workshops and nice little statues. It's an escape for those that want to dress up their secular lifestyle to feel spiritually significant. It's an offshoot of the human potential movement right there along with Satanism.

Real Buddhism in the east has systemic pedophilia and other nefarious deeds like political blackmail not to mention it's own cultural practices akin to voodoo.

There's no objective measuring stick as to what defines a good Buddhist and whether one is practicing in a successful manner. Not being swayed by outward circumstances and calling it "enlightenment" could just as easily be sociopathy or catatonia.

Buddhism in the west is typically done as a reactionary measure by a solitary member of a family looking to find something that will allow for more liberty in the sin department. Rarely if ever does one hear of a patriarch of a different religion converting themselves and their entire family to Buddhism.

Buddhism is stoopid.

Digha Nikaya 3:
>Then the Blessed One thought thus: ‘This Ambaṭṭha is very set on humbling the Sākyas with his charge of servile origin. What if I were to ask him as to his own lineage.’ And he said to him:
>‘And what family do you then, Ambaṭṭha, belong to?’
>‘I am a Kaṇhāyana.’
>‘Yes, but if one were to follow up your ancient name and lineage, Ambaṭṭha, on the father’s and the mother’s side, it would appear that the Sākyas were once your masters, and that you are the offspring of one of their slave girls. But the Sākyas trace their line back to Okkāka the king.'
>'Now Okkāka had a slave girl called Disā. She gave birth to a black baby. And no sooner was it born than the little black thing said, “Wash me, mother. Bathe me, mother. Set me free, mother, of this dirt. So shall I be of use to you.”
>‘Now just as now, Ambaṭṭha, people call devils “devils,” so then they called devils “black fellows” (kaṇhe). And they said: “This fellow spoke as soon as he was born. ’Tis a black thing (kaṇha) that is born, a devil has been born!” And that is the origin, Ambaṭṭha, of the Kaṇhāyanas. He was the ancestor of the Kaṇhāyanas.

Haha, I'm not surprised. All the Eastern religions as presented to the west come from a place of "don't be a meanie" and by that they mean no rules! I chalk it up to dualism, the ying yang is the same as the Masonic checkerboard. Relative morality, good is bad, bad is good nonsense.

I did a quick lookup of the San Francisco Zen Center. It's part of a larger network so I assume it got captured at a higher level and the mandate flowed down to the ashrams or whatever you call it in Zen.

Unfortunately some of the Protestant churches in my area have or had BLM and Pride flags. Again, this comes from a captured dioceses and flows down to the congregations.

I don't think westerners should abandon Christianity for these eastern religions. This is what the boomers did and if backfired. We should not flee the church due to the pedos, If more fathers with backbone attended and brought righteous wrath to the offenders they would scatter. It almost seems like the pedos have been installed to collapse the Catholic church from within.

That's great that you consulted the Bible before making a big decision. There's a few times I wish I did that.

>Real Buddhism in the east has systemic pedophilia and other nefarious deeds like political blackmail not to mention it's own cultural practices akin to voodoo.

>The thing with Buddhism is it's so selfish. The entire point is to not suffer, which is rewarding obviously but it doesn't have those fundamentals that show care and empathy for the world around.
if people care so much to alleviate suffering, then why don't they follow the buddha's teaching which is open to everybody to begin with?

You've gotta be kidding me trying to pass off the idea of a bunch of monks cloistered away with young boys is all hands-off and 'spiritual'. You're truly drunk on the kool-aid or the master's semen.

here's just one of many, many articles about it.

Of course there are localized tribal customs and magical practices merged with Buddhism. The Sadhana outlines 4 types of magic including black.

>You seem to be thinking in terms of politics rather than spiritual truth
To some extent yes, because the poster I was responding to painted Buddhism in a political light.

>I don't think westerners should abandon Christianity for these eastern religions.
I say this because I think it's more effective to tap into one's own cultural and ancestral heritage through their birth religion. Christianity has lots to explore in terms of the mystical and esoteric. I would say the same to a Muslim and if they want a more mystical experience they can explore Sufism. One simply has more access to these avenues within their culture especially in those cultures where exploring other faiths is dealt with harshly.

I will say that occasionally a person needs to break away from their family or birth religion and that it is a generally good thing that people can do that in the west w/o persecution.

I was gonna say, sounds like someone's never heard of the 969 Movement. Also, many samurai in the days of old practiced Zen as well. Sorry to say, a lot of what has been presented to us as Buddhism in the West is basically propaganda from the 1960s and on, aimed at spiritually minded people who don't jive with Christianity, to get them to become cucks and accept everything that has been planned for the West including white demographic genocide.
