What does Sup Forums think of the buddha?

>>his father Raises Siddhartha guatama in a lavish palace
>>never lets him know about things like ailments or death
>>surrounds him with sexy women
>>offers his son the best possible life of happiness possible

Even though Siddartha literally was never told about things like death or sickness, his father gave him probably the most perfect life possible and siddartha betrays him after he finds out the world isnt perfect and chimps out and abandons his family to follow a narcissistic journey of enlightenment.

He had a lot in common with devout Christian ideas. He is based, ignore the hipster larpers saying they are buddhist

I look at siddartha Gautama with condemnation rather, he was a prince given everythijg to him and shits on it by abandoning his kingdom for a narcissistic journey that got him nowhere.

>narcissistic
Everyone should be as narcissistic if that means every person would be looking for a path towards enlightenment.

Sounds like someone who got sick and tired of being pampered.

seems like a cool dude.

His lessons are more applicable than ever, in a world where even the poorest cunts can literally eat or drink themselves to death with a gluttonous frenzy of depressing feedback loops, in total and complete spite of massive life-expectancy-improving medical advancements.

In this strange new world we've forged, some of our instincts betray us.

We would do well to find them and be mindful of them.

This.

You didn't even read his story. He visited poor people and was moved by their suffering.

Its more than that, he had a wife and boy and left them. He was a father and a husbund and followed his own path rather than be a king and a father. I dont hate him, but I just find his decisions objectionable and narcissistic for the wrong reasons.

>if you don't accept the pleasures of the flesh as the ultimate goal, you're a bad person
Begone sinner

Buddists are

Bro Teir.

Shouldnt it be a sin to not accept the pleasures of flesh?

They spend all their time meditating about life, the mind, the physical world and everything in-between.

It doesn't surprise me that they're collectively woke as fuck about Muslims, who are basically the complete polar opposite...

No. There are higher goals in life than feeling (physically) good. Any major religion can tell you that.

...

...

That's just irresponsible. Becoming a monk when you have a family isn't a very reasonable option, his mental state probably broke when all the lies got to him tho. It had to be THAT bad.

At casinos I rub his tummy for good luck

...

A sin is anything that actually literally objectively fucks you up in the end.
That's all.

People try too hard to separate the 'spiritual' world and the 'physical' world.
The final golden pill is that there is just one world; the universe, and all the lessons to be learned apply, period.

To fuck with 'god' is exactly the same kind of thing as fucking with gravity itself. It will win unless you make a massive sacrifice to it.

The universe is the universe, its components are best described with science, its personality is best described with the metaphor of spirituality.
There is a good reason we have a left and right brain.

Yea I know that, but fleshalpleasurement is something all of human kind and people must experience in order to increase western fertility rate. A white boy with multiple women I can see something the government enforcing and economically benefiting from.

I understand that physical pleasurement isnt the ultimate pleasure, but all human beings with a functions dick and pussy has a biological obligation to fuck and make people, otherwise you have japan or germany where the economy is shit due to too many old people.

I think the reason he left is because he realized the 4 truths of life while he walked the streets of his country as a prince.

This.

Why would a board filled with materialistic racist false Christians care about Buddha?

this is how i can tell you're a jew

it's myth create by his followers . it's like comparison of his inner life and his real life or something like that

you think it is possibler that he "NEVER KNOW" the imperfect of this world after he studied languages, reading, writing, mathematics, history, geography, science, and games like boxing, archery, wrestling and many others? He learnt all these subjects faster than any other pupil in his class. He was the cleverest in the class and the best at games

he must be a fool and can't be prophet if he learn all of that but never know life is suffer

another story but more reasonable told by another branch of buddhism is he abandon his palace because he lost vote in the senate of kings to not make a war with ??? I can't remember

I think you may never heard anything like this from main stream buddhist

now relax

>japan or germany
> the economy is shit due to too many old people.
Let me guess, you acquired this knowledge from news articles that recommended immigration, didn't you?

Desire is neutral. It entirely depends on what you desire that matters. I desire a better future for the west.

Lao Tzu, that is all.

Well they factor into it

And if people stop desiring for a better future, there will be no future at all. The cons of buddhism is it's obsession with ego death, many monks end up killing themselves via meditation, and they are praised for it. It's suicidal. I'm not saying buddhism is bad, but it's not perfect.

*gasp*

>many monks end up killing themselves via meditation
Is there proof of this?

it's true. they are monks kill themselves in thailand too but by what reason I am not confirm

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sokushinbutsu

It's unreal how he figured it all out so early in our history.

"A Buddha" or "This Buddha" or even just "Buddha" but not "The Buddha."

This. Apparently there were 27 Buddhas before this one.

Crazy japs offing themselves in novel ways don't really represnt the teachings of buddhism though.

Teaching of Buddhism tends to vary from country to country. It is entirely possibly that they were taught dying while meditating was honorable.

You can find Tibetan, Indian etc. monks doing similar things. They even end up being mummies.

All the old worlds spiritual insights are evil goyim.
But don't you dare say anything bad about the Talmud ooooyy veyy

The one in that wiki article is not a variation from country to country, it was just one school, that was based in only one province in japan. So it's pretty much one crazy jap that came from china with a misinterpretation and the other retards followed suit.

Proof of that?
In any case that practice seem to be isolated as fuck, definitely not the end goal of buddhist practices as a whole, like you mentioned.

Tukdam meditation

Tukdam is practice reserved to people who are already about to die.

rigpawiki.org/index.php?title=Tukdam
I never said it's an end goal, who knows, but it happens like some sort of deep meditation trance that you can't wake up from. Just look up Tukdam in google.

I did:

>after he finds out the world isnt perfect and chimps out and abandons his family to follow a narcissistic journey of enlightenment.

blackpilled af

Alright if that's the case, it doesn't sound that bad, but what about those who meditate to the point they look like skeletons?

Thanks for introducing me to this vid, OP. I'm halfway through it so far.

What with them?
If they disregarded excess food and any need for muscle beyond necessary function whats wrong with them being skinny?

padmasambhavagururinpoche.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/07/padmasambhava_tibetan-book-of-the-dead_4.pdf
This is really long but it seems worth it so far if you're looking to learn more about Tibetan Buddhism.

>any need for muscle beyond necessary function whats wrong with them being skinny?
They're simply not balanced individuals. Look at the Chinese monks, at least they have many ways of keeping in shape. By all objective means, being anorexic isn't healthy.

>offers his son the best possible life of happiness possible

It's almost as if the material world isn't the best possible life of happiness possible.

What he did is the opposite of chimping out

I agree with you that it's not as healthy, but that doesn't seem like a direction given by the teachings themselves, but merely individuals having different priorities on how to live.

Based bong

I think they should focus on that more in order to fulfill this
Mind, body, and spirit are all important and requires all to be in check to truly achieve your fullest potential of being.

>his father Raises Siddhartha guatama in a lavish palace
Is this a repeat of the Jesus story?

"Muh Morals",
Lolz, Those losers are missing out the good life. Who couldn't resist wealth, fame, power, and women,

he was a smart dude

quote looks fake

This is true, but it's way beyond what a bluepilled normie can grasp. They need a predigested set of morals to follow, they can't meditate and realize their own set of core values.

this is ascetisism and is expressly discouraged by buddhism in favour of the middle way of moderation

>Repeat of the Jesus story?
In what way... Joseph was a humble carpenter in an occupied land. And he was born 500 years after Prince Siddhartha

but it isn't
