I used to shit on buddhism a lot because I believed it makes you apathetic, and since most of the practitioners seem like losers. But it can be helpful to look into briefly if you aren’t satisfied with your life. It can help get you on the path of not living in your head. If you’re not careful and miss the message you will start living in your head because you are obsessed with the techniques or becoming enlightened or whatever. So maybe I can’t vouch for it at all. You don’t need buddhism, nobody does. But it can be a path towards getting rid of all the shit in your mind.

i wish we had thread where eastern "wisdom" gets analyzed manfully. that is, without the assumption that it must be "deep" or "mysterious" , just because it sounds exotic to us. we would leave that to brahmins, mongoloids and yoga-thots. in that thread we would talk about the actual theses exposed in the
> buddhist triptaka
> upanishads
> daodejing
and their developements from a strictly logical standpoint. first of all, an anon would ask, are asian texts endowed with such a thing (formal logic)? or are they just a set of revelations and "teachings" from gurus and sages?
the core "teaching" i get from these writings, another anon would answer, is that the phemomenal world would be either
1) an illusion, because everything we know would happen in our mind, for the sole reason we "know" it, so that we would never know the ultimate reality (upanishads)
or
2) be pain, for various reasons, among which: are doomed to death, humans are violent, desire in general is inextinguishable (triptaka).
in my opinion, he would continue, these theses are primitive and flawed. their general attitude is a de-valuation of reality due to its being "JUST" a mental creation. this mindset shows a severe lack of epistemological aims (the "gurus" don't ask themselves "what does the word 'true' mean?" , "what is a valid criterion for it?" ). it looks like basically common sense, the good old "who knows?", elevated to religion. for instance, the idea that such a thing as the "ultimate reality" (brahman) exists is by no means logical. as far as we know, our mind could produce the phenomenical world , including the representation of our mind itself, autonomously, without any brahman or atman. this 230+ IQ anon could argue, like william james in 1904, that the very idea of "conscience" is imposed by a language game and not needed for knowledge. these are just hypotheses, he would precise. even more charatanical would seem to him the alleged consequence of this conception, that is, that the phenomenal world is illusory and ultimately false because it doesn't coincide with the brahman. but if the indians ever asked themselves "what is true" with some decent cognitive ability, they would have understood that the concept itself, the representation, of "brahman" is inside and not outside an epistemology and that the judgement of truth is not given by the brahman but by that epistemology which makes you think the brahman is true.

You're fucking batty if you think nobody outside of Europe ever asked that question. China, India, even fucking MesoAmerica is filled with thinkers asking that exact question. If you want Buddhists autistically quibbling about the minutiae of what makes up reality, look into the Abhidharma. It's a big attempt to break reality up into the fundamental discrete particles (these are not strictly physical, there are mental and spiritual dharmas [no relation to "Dharma = Way"]). It ends with Nagarjuna writing Buddhism's equivalent of the Summa Theologica to demonstrate why this entire exercise is pointless from a Buddhist framework.

If you don't like that "Eastern Religions" (whatever that's supposed to mean) don't try to create a Theory of Everything... Well yeah, they aren't trying to. The Buddha set out to ease suffering, not create a Theory of Everything.

>first of all, an anon would ask, are asian texts endowed with such a thing (formal logic)? or are they just a set of revelations and "teachings" from gurus and sages?
There exist many different types of Indian philosophy and logic, for example within the auspices of Hinduism there is a logic school called nyaya which discusses in their writings many of the same topics as western logic. The Hindu scriptures which are revealed texts obviously do not claim to be or present themselves as logical tracts, but Hindus have still written commentaries on them using logic to analyze and defend them.

>their general attitude is a de-valuation of reality due to its being "JUST" a mental creation
this is moreso the attitude of Buddhism, which has various positions on this but a typical one is that the outside world and the entities we perceive are just 'conceptual contrsucts', with Hinduism rather the world is not created and sustained by the mind or thoughts but by God's power.

> this mindset shows a severe lack of epistemological aims (the "gurus" don't ask themselves "what does the word 'true' mean?" , "what is a valid criterion for it?" ).
Many of the eastern philosophies have writings on epistemology, and in fact the 12th century Advaita philosopher Śrīharṣa came up with the so-called "Gettier problem" (which modern epistemology is still stumped by) about 700 years before Gettier wrote about it in the 20th century,

https://plato.stanford.edu/entries/sriharsa/

https://www.iep.utm.edu/gettier/

>as far as we know, our mind could produce the phenomenical world , including the representation of our mind itself, autonomously, without any brahman or atman.
and where did that mind come from, and what was the cause of the cause of that mind etc? It leads back to God or an uncaused eternal mind/consciousness which is practically God

>that the very idea of "conscience" is imposed by a language game and not needed for knowledge.
did you mean to write consciousnesses? The eastern schools typically day that moral conscience is helpful to spiritual progress but is itself not the arbiter of success, conscience is not an idea that eastern philosophy heavily relies on

>they would have understood that the concept itself, the representation, of "brahman" is inside and not outside an epistemology and that the judgement of truth is not given by the brahman but by that epistemology which makes you think the brahman is true.

it is a completely different thing from the the gettier problem. or rather the repective critical point have nothing to do with each others. but of course you don't get it.
> and where did that mind come from, and what was the cause of the cause of that mind etc? It leads back to God or an uncaused eternal mind/consciousness which is practically God
i already answered. "mind" is a concept INSIDE the representation, so, all you are doing is connecting every element of perceived reality to that single "concept". thus, asking yourself what's the cause of that concept is futile, becuase you have already decided that it is something like "a body" outside your representation, which is a bizarre idea (but i get that common sense is at work here) which i you have to prove before, LOGICALLY.
> did you mean to write consciousnesses?
yes.
> this is just you offering your personal opinion without any justification for it (and no, the previous part of your post was not a real justification)
when you say "the brahman exists" you are implyig this sentence is true. therevore it is subjected to an epistemology, that works either for the brahman, for your shoes, for your sister, from the colosseum. do you get it? if so, you also understand that "being the brahman" is not the source for any truth.

>no the nyaya school has nothing to do with formal logic,
Incorrect, the late nyaya and its subschools like the Navya-Nyāya did formal logic

>The type of logic which developed in ancient India is not symbolic, but it is nevertheless formal. Its formal character becomes obvious if one looks at the theory of inference in late Nyāya and in Navya-Nyāya. Navya-Naiyāyikas were particularly concerned about the definition of pervasion (vyāpti), the relation between probans and probandum in an inference. In order to define the concept of pervasion with utmost precision they designed an ideal language, a kind of Leibnizian characteristica universalis based on a canonical form of Sanskrit, which serves to explicate the objective content of verbalized and unverbalized cognitions and to disambiguate sentences formulated in ordinary Sanskrit. Some of the most significant logical insights of the Navya-Naiyāyikas are an offshoot of their attempts to elaborate ondefinitions of pervasion by making extensive use of their peculiar linguistic tools.

>The formal language of the Navya-Naiyāyikas has been studied in detail in a Sanskritwork by Maheśa Chandra dating from the nineteenth century, which will be used here as a major work of reference (cf. BN and Guhe 2014). There are also several Western publications in which the authors have tried to render linguistic conventions in Navya-Nyāya by means of some kind of symbolic notation.

Incorrect, it's pretty widely acknowledge by scholars that Sriharsa came up with the Gettier problem first, and in fact Sriharsa anticipates and offers refutations of the various solutions that modern thinkers have attempted to offer the problem

This is what makes consciousness the parent of all horrors, the thing that makes us try to do something, go somewhere, be something, and know someone, such as ourselves, so that we can escape our MALIGNANTLY USELESS being and think that being alive is all right rather than that which should not be.

Each of those questions is a massive theological can of worms, and the reason they appear as problems to you is because of the logical axioms you approach them from. It's not your fault, but know that the mysteries of God can only begun to be understood by approaching them with an open heart.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tiYf6ITgWbk
If God is compassionate and loves his children why did he create Hell for them to suffer.
People go to hell of their own volition when they go against God of their own free will. God only created hell in a technical way; He gave us free will and therefor allowed us to stray from his light, and by straying from Him we created hell.
>How could a compassionate God know his children are suffering and do nothing?
Suffering is impermanent. Do you claim the parent who lets their child live on their own and experience the hardships of life does not love their child? Of course not. Through suffering, growth.
>If he does nothing, he is not compassionate.
Absolutely not, this is the conclusion inevitably drawn when atheists approach christianity with the intent of applying reason to their predisposition against it. Consider that it is a form of compassion to allow others to solve their own problems. This is, of course, only an example from the human experience. It's hard to use allegories to explain the divine, but allegories are the most succinct things to fit in a post.
>why strive for his love?
Because loving God completes the human soul and fulfills our purpose in life.

God is compassionate in that He endured the great suffering and trials of humanity in order to redeem His creation, but He is also just in that the wages of sin must be paid for.

They're midwits.
The realization that what we call consciousness is an amalgamation of various independent processes is important. From there you can either decide that the idea of "self" is illusion or illumination. The former will create mental and psychological structures in your mind just as much as the latter - only it will do it far much oppressively and with little ability to navigate the world around you. Enlightenment isn't too dissimilar from a form of psychosis.
The proof is in the adherants - all western buddhists are losers and all eastern buddhists are just peasants and rapists.
Be a brother of the left hand path and celebrate God through living in the awareness that has been granted.

clearly inferior forms of life. it makes me sad when i see Europans lowering themselves to that, e. g. doing yoga and masturbating on their "philosophies". like angels throwing themselves into the mud. i think someone thought something similar in the 3rd century when they saw the asian christian plague spreading across the roman families.

Buddhism is just as shitty if not more shitty than crap like judaism and islam. The only difference is because its rare in the western world, when you see people shill it they only shill the parts of it that sound appealing and they word their shilling in such a way that it sounds appealing. real buddhism as practiced in the East is full of nonsense BS like a definition of social classes that doesn't apply to us and cow feces worship.

>its rare in the western world,
it is not. it is even more common than hinduism because secular humanists view it as a non-frightening validation of their believes. They even com-modified it with little statues for the home and gardens.
