There is no God but Man.

1. Man has the right to live by his own law—
to live in the way that he wills to do:
to work as he will:
to play as he will:
to rest as he will:
to die when and how he will.
2. Man has the right to eat what he will:
to drink what he will:
to dwell where he will:
to move as he will on the face of the earth.
3. Man has the right to think what he will:
to speak what he will:
to write what he will:
to draw, paint, carve, etch, mould, build as he will:
to dress as he will.
4. Man has the right to love as he will:—
"take your fill and will of love as ye will,
when, where, and with whom ye will." —AL. I. 51
5. Man has the right to kill those who would thwart these rights.

"the slaves shall serve." —AL. II. 58

"Love is the law, love under will." —AL. I. 57

>>76757675
I'm a Christian, but I have to admit that Buddhism is based. Like OP said, it's not necessarily a religion. If you set aside the rituals, you will see its just a collection of truths (redpills, of you like). Many are compatible with Christianity.

Buddhism: life is suffering.
Christianity: All humans suffer, due to original sin.
B: It is your duty to share the truth of the way with others.
C: Shout it from the mountaintops, Jesus is our lord, etc.
B: Fear of death causes pain.
C: Fear of death is a lack of faith in the salvation God will provide, when you exit your body.
B: Good deeds promote positivity, bad deeds breed negativity.
C: Love thy neighbor, turn the other cheek to your enemies.
You get the idea. Zen Buddhism is the most interesting form.
>>
>>76761111

yes, but why it is better than God does not mean he you know, pawns gods. No not that way.

It means he has got rid of all suffering and stuff. Where even gods are prone to. Thats why.

>>76761489
morality is evaluated on 3 steps:

Will the action or thought ;
A). Harm another person
B) Harm self.
C) Harm any other.


If not, it is deemed as a good deed.
>>
>>76761344
I think I understand. So, even Gods have desire and they take action and make power plays and all that, but to become Budda you have to go beyond suffering and desire.
Tell me, is it true that first a guru becomes a "stone Budda", as in he does not participate in society, but then he says fuck it and starts mingling with people again. Only this time around, the guru understands that life is not to be taken too seriously.

What if they don't, but they forgive me for it/takes no offense? Is it still bad?
>>
>>76761451
>cease to exist.
Because you become one with everything. Everything includes everything, nothingness, and God. God is in everything, while also existing outside of the realm of reality. There are universal realities that are impossible to grasp and communicate with human minds.
>>
>>76761489

Morality, good, bad. HA! You think the universe (god, whatever that is) gives a fuck about human thought on good or bad? Play your part, die, maybe go into the one or maybe be reborn to do something different.
>>
>>76761804
There is no clear cut "good" or "bad"
Only intention
>>
>>76761451

not literally. you follow the path to realize the truth that "you", as in your ego and "soul" (which is not a concept in Buddhism), do not exist. Buddhism attributes all wrong doing and delusion (suffering) to these concepts.

yeah thats right. Even gods have desire and stuff like normal people, yet much more good. Still, desire is counted as desire.

No, no such thing. A buddha, before he becomes a buddha, will travel around searching for the 'truth' till he finds it. That is how it goes.

I believe the 'stone buddha' you are mentioning is, at one part when he was searching for truth, a certain 'brahmin' advised that suffering the body is how you get closer to the truth. The Buddha tried this to almost to the point he did not eat or drink water or even move. Almost like a stone. Then he realized there is not truth here but death, and changed ways.

Trees - No. They are not 'living'.
If you harm your self for the benefit/well-being of others then it is not regarded as bad. Because in thought, you are doing to save people, not in the sole purpose of killing your self.

Sleep/waking up are just normal behavior. Worlds behavior falls into: According to the way of weather, Way of the Genes, Way of the laws of nature, Way of Karma, and way of thought.

Even if someone wants you to harm them, you should not. That is not right. Life is considered a valuable gift.

Actually meditating + taking the 8th fold path should lead to Nirvanna which is about escaping Samsara (the cycle of life and death) not about reincarnating in a higher plane. It's actually seen as worse to reincarnate in a higher plane because without the suffering in your life you might not be incentivized to escape Samsara.

Redpill incoming, kiddo, open your ears.
Buddhism as a religion is a blue pilled faggotry hijacked by some gays who like to live together, live off of other people's money, and only copy the exterior things instead of the interior ones, instead being an individual fighter like Gautama was himself.

Everything you read about Buddhism in the West, is bullshit though. It is not some >muh humans >muh worldpeace >muh hippy shit religion at all.
Check out that Wij 'The Buddha's Scourge' Wakram or whatever his name is.

Now if we're talking about Siddhartha's philosophy and not the rigid religion under the term Buddhism, it really is a very good one, has a lot of similarity with Stoicism. Would not be surprised if the stoics were really influenced by Buddhists from the East.

I agree, buddhism has been hijacked by a bunch of hippies who never really meditated in their lives.

If you want to practice buddhism, just get your ass on a pillow and start meditating. All other things are really superfluous. Buddha didn't study buddhism when he became enlighten.

It goes right over your head. You can't use your brain to understand with your spirit. Zen is about freeing your mind from your own crippling ego, to just experience the truth that exists all around you. The koans and questions disarm your rigid, closed way of thinking and sensing.
>>
>>76767582

There are many school of Zen, personally I also think that koans are retarded.

But zazen is the ultimate red pill, have been practicing every day, over a year. It has given me an amazing clarity and mental focus. It actually turned my personality by 180 degrees. Everybody says I look different, but nobody can pin it down to what it is.
I really don't care if I reach nirvana or if it really exist, I will just continue meditating.
