you retards coudent tell what buddhism is if it came out your ass, the buddhism all you twats refer to comes from the Hīnayāna which is the shitty retarded version of the original doctrines compared with the Mahāyāna which stays way truer to the doctrines. You all are fascinated with a buddhism that is most likely the farthest and least familiar with any eastern doctrines aka not buddhism but some shit Westerners love to praise. As a student studying Traditionalism but more so the orientals i can't help but cringe everytime I see you discuss "Buddhism" its more so some-shit the Westerners took in and adapted to their imagination. You guys some chart (like pic-related) and become a Eastern monk and maybe even understand Buddhism itself? gtfo, read guenon's first book so you can get rid of your western prejudices
Joseph Davis
This, Buddhism is unironically basically just NeoVedanta, just stick with the original, read Adi Shankara
Matthew Ramirez
read Guenon's Introduction to the Study of the Hindu Doctrines first or else you will be left clueless with your western prejudice
Josiah Perez
true
Gabriel Turner
Guenon is literally the only authority on the subject. Read him before ANY eastern text.
Anthony Edwards
this but unironically

Buddhism Without Beliefs - Stephen bachelor
The Heart Of Buddha's Teaching: Transforming Suffering into Peace, Joy and Liberation - Thich Nhat Hanh
An End to Suffering: The Buddha in the World - Pankaj Mishra
The Buddha and the Sahibs: The Men Who Discovered India's Lost Religion - Charles Allen
Taking advice on buddhism, or any religion, from Yea Forums is not a great idea. The most basic understanding of any of the axial religions would lead you to conclude that lurking on the chans was a reprehensible activity.

>reading western bias anglo secular buddhism without any background in the indian traditions
lmao pseud
Thomas Flores
>hasn't attained any samadhi states or liberation in any sense and is criticising others on their knowledge of Buddhism
Go back to your books, philosopher.
Robert King
>thinking that you can relate to these "Indian traditions" as anything other than a bunch of stuff you happen to like the idea of.
Buddhism/
Owen Fisher
modern day indians dont even understand their own traditions
read Guenon
Josiah Anderson
at least they grow up with them and don't cherry pick them like some kind of glorified cultural tourism.
Owen Thompson
Hindutvas are the only true hindus left. Daily remember to kill all people who disrespect cows.
Wyatt Wilson
that's exactly what the west and the anglos did with buddhism kid
start with Introduction to the Study of the Hindu Doctrines lest you fall into the trap of western orientalism
Jaxon Jones
this. Only western anglos who have read Guenon can understand the east. Modern indians are too far gone.
Brayden Bennett

>that's exactly what the west and the anglos did with buddhism kid
damn he walked right into that one lmao
Ian Hill
beliefs have to be more substantial than a bunch of stuff you happen to like the idea of.
Buddhism is more than an aesthetic.
You cannot relate to the "indian traditions" on anything other than an intellectual level
Jonathan Price
Read Guenon and you'll understand.
Adrian Wright
yea buddhism is more than an aesthetic
its a poor ripoff of guenon's teachings of vedanta and non-dualism, but with a bullshit "paradigm shift" of "oooh we don't talk about metaphysics here oooh we're so divorced from the tradition oooh"
thankfully mahayana recognized the absolute and recovered the true teachings of buddhism but it is still just a shit version of vedanta LOL
Mason Baker
>but with a bullshit "paradigm shift" of "oooh we don't talk about metaphysics here oooh we're so divorced from the tradition oooh"
this it's basically the "not-this, not this" negation found in the Brihadaranyaka Upanishad with an extra helping of identity crisis over babbies first muh apophatic theology
>thankfully mahayana recognized the absolute and recovered the true teachings of buddhism but it is still just a shit version of vedanta LOL
Also, true although Jonang Buddhism is based and realized the same truth as Advaita and is the crowning perfection of Buddhist thought (but even then Shankara is still better)
Angel Martin
Shankara is nothing compared to guenon, idiot.
Ryan Gutierrez
they're the same person
Jordan White
no Guenon is Amida Buddha
Noah Robinson
Why the proliferation o Buddhism threads on 4 chan all of a sudden?
Has the Land poster had some kind of quasi-mystical experience?
this is the least Buddhist place ever
Liam Morgan
they're probably gonna start to decline now that guenonposters have BTFO them
Nathaniel Collins
Because a bunch of clowns in undegrad got memed into believing muh buddhism is ancient empiricism and is proved by neuroscience according to Sam Harrisburg without even understanding that the whole thing is a weak Upanishad offshoot that is only salvageable or remotely worthwhile in the areas like Jonang and Ch'an which are steeped in Daoism, Tantra, etc
this desu
Christian Wright
one hindu faggot who hates buddhism is sperging out and posting a dozen guenon/shankara threads and posts saying buddhism is just hinduism
Michael Gutierrez
>implying buddhism isnt just hinduism
Adam Watson
>butt-blasted buddhafag in denial
Buddhism is just Hinduism
Liam Gray
go away poo
Brandon Nelson
reminder that it is just a shittier Vedanta anyways and therefore a useless denomination of Hinduism
