KK Rage Posted March 1, 2005 Report Posted March 1, 2005 Anybody into Buddhism? Can't really type much now because I am "working" but the question entered my mind....
Nighthawk Posted March 1, 2005 Report Posted March 1, 2005 I've studied it. It makes a bit less sense than Christianity, so take that how you will. Most don't understand the sense of Christianity, though, that's not as much of a slight as it may seem. That's real Buddhism though. Nowadays you get a lot of self styled Buddhists who basically take what they like and make stuff up. Buddhism is sort of fine with that... not completely but more than a lot of other paths. It's a fad, which is the other thing I don't like about it. Western Buddhists are usually stuck up pricks. I like the ambiance.
KK Rage Posted March 1, 2005 Author Report Posted March 1, 2005 Tis true.... many people who tend to say they are practicioners can be very stuck up and artsy fartsy. However, one who has made true progress and really knows Buddhism realizes that the overall goal is the complete destruction of the ego and precognitions.
