Wonder what Ken Wheeler thinks of sexual continence (semen retention)?
how did you find him?
more importantly did you start with the Greeks?
look at his fucking arms i cant take someone looking like that seriously
>"nine enneads"
what a fucking moron
stumbled upon his videos on anatman
I see.
Yes, he's right. Translations suck and a lot of the translation work that was done in the past is lacking in subtlety. But if you study it long enough you eventually piece it together and get the correct meaning (as he has done).
He's also a crazy person who thinks magnets are portals to the fifth dimension or whatever. Ken is one of those annoying anons on Yea Forums who abandoned Neoplatonism in favor of drone striking threads with rambles about Anatta. A smart well-read pseud, but still a pseud.
He's a schizo pseud and also shit at photography. He's not worth anyone's time.
Lawd this dude sucks at photography.
What defines "pseud" in a general context? What differentiates a pseud from a legitimate intellectual or whatever? Not defending this guy, just interested
All digital photography sucks.
REEEEE
What a silly thing to say, but he is terrible even by that standard.
Silly to say? Perhaps. Still true.
Haha XD. Well played good Sir.
is anything he says about anatta really wrong though?
He has a really good point about a lack of interest on part of the translator or disagreement. Even for relatively similar languages like English and German, modern translations of Kant are appallingly bad because they were translated by brainlets with no interest in the material. The end result is a long, dry, literal translation that makes little sense at times. In a nutshell, basically, I came here to say FUCK CAMBRIDGE PRESS AND FUCK ITS TRANSLATORS TO HELL!
Argument is sound enough and he seems to know his shit but his clear need to proclaim everyone else and their opinions are infinitely stupid (literally talks about how he destroyed people in debate lol) makes him sound like an absolute incompétente
>I will destroy them
>and I mean that literally
I lost a few times watching this, but he seemed legit
>fatwojak.jpg
Ironic I just watched one of his videos on hard drive fixing.
This guys fucking insane
>westerners traveled to SE Asia where the Theravadins told them Mahayana was wrong
>but I went to eastern Asia and the Mahayanists informed me that Theravada is wrong
>Ken is one of those annoying anons on Yea Forums who abandoned Neoplatonism in favor of drone striking threads with rambles about Anatta
LMAO, it isn't him. this is the third time that i know i'm being talked about this month, time to start tripfagging and get another not-self
based and true
Gaydar red alert. Hands gestures & eyes dead giveaway.
fuck you OP
now I'm four hours deep into videos about transcendent geometry and magnetic fields
this guy is an ass and probably insane but I need to hear more
>A smart well-read pseud, but still a pseud.
(You)
cope
>Gaydar
he had a wife apparently
He thinks they're both wrong.
quick rundown on this lad?
She died of cancer if i'm not mistaken.
This is a pseudo-intellectual in his natural habitat. Holy shit what a pathetic moron. He literally doesnt know what the hell he is talking about. it's so blatant and obvious, this must be a parody
>implying that this man doesn't have a firm and clear grasp on the Eternal Tradition and transcendental metaphysics of reality
Holy shit, you're a brainlet soul-denying scum.
>t. this is all there is-ism (((Buddhist)))
we have the retard people who read self help books or things with titles like "the buddhists steps to stop worrying about the coffee"
and then we have all this massive people saying buddhism is something profound and transcendent misinterpreted by the stupid western people, and they dont have even a slight awareness about that this is something trite to death.
and they, after saying all the shit about the misinterpreting retards, start to say the original teachings are somehow unique and thoughtful when they really are like randoms ramblings of a wise mystic like thousands of them even today, some osho ancient brahman dick shit.
they both are religious junkies and they both are retarded. the westerners and the westerners saying westerners cant understand the real truth. fuck them.
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 read some chart 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
funny because the Buddhism that the guy linked in the OP expounds, is the same kind that would align with this pasta
>He literally doesnt know what the hell he is talking about. it's so blatant and obvious,
In the video he challenges anyone to debate him live on speakerphone, if you're so confident he's wrong maybe you should take him up on that. He's already btfo Bhikku 'chocolate addict' Bodhi
Uh...uh...-Pseud! I don't have to waste my time on pseuds! Just take my word over his. Fuck YOU
>yfw you realize he probably posts on here in the Guenon and Buddhism threads
hi Ken
bump for this fat schizo
Wait a minute... this isn't /p/
he's basically a modern day shankara
kek
holy fuck give this man some thyroid hormones.
It's true.
Which ones?
>1488
yes, and don't let any buttblasted 'buddhist' try to tell you otherwise
His autistic ravings about photography are entertaining.
based. film manufacturing is nearing is end sadly. I'll miss my minolta.
Which one did you have?
My father's black x-500. Now that's what I call A fucking camera. Perfect balance of technologically assisted and manual photography. Still has some traces of the red earth from my father's trips to mali. Still works but needs some love. needs a new light filter and the lens are etched all over by fungus. Ill buy a new one soon enough.
Nice camera, user.
