Is there an equivalent of santanity for buddhism? People worshipping mara, the demon king, god of desire and sensuality
>>38261769I don't know but I guess the complete opposite to Buddhism would either be Nietschzeanism or hedonism.

mara is really just being overinvolved in the worldlyso yeah the top 1% is already doing that
>>38261769Worshiping ghosts and demons.
>>38261769No need, because Buddhism as it exists "in the wild" is syncretically practiced with native faiths which allow for the worship of deities, demons and human ancestors alike. This strict either/or prohibition only exists in abrahamic faiths, giving rise to the necessity of Satanism, as a logical counterpart,but eastern religions blend the LHP and RHP seamlessly.

No. Unlike Christians, Buddhists didn't try to impose their religion on others so there was never a need for a counter-movememt like Satanism. Sorry.
>>38262239thiseverything plays its part
>>38262941Then you don't know anything about buddhist development and history
>>38262941I was speaking on generalities. Of course there have been Buddhists who were intolerant of other religions and other sects of Buddhism. But it never approached the scale you see in Christianity. But hey, if you want to be pedantic and try to out-nerd me in this feel free to bring up figures like Ashoka, Pal Dorje, and Nichiren. If you do then I'll just counter with the vast majority of Buddhist leaders and sects that either tolerated other faiths or syncrerized with them.
