Books about Buddhism as control.

[Anonymous No.19453458]

Is modern Buddhism basically a form of control?
Any other literature decisively destroying the doctrines of Buddhism?
I read Fr. Seraphim Rose and like it.

Also are there any books which explain that Hindu yoga is just a perverted form of Christianity which St. Thomas brought into India?

I've already been in this discussion but in short, Buddhism isn't a control practice per se, but it happens to be so far detached from Western reality that it can be stripped of all spiritual elements into a few pseudo-spiritual elements that are aimed to fulfill the modern person-drone's existential void. The average Westerner barely has any understanding of Buddhist thought. Expanding on this, it is especially women who hold an extremely flawed view of Buddhism as a pseudo-stoic philosophy with no supernatural elements (my sample is college-educated women who think Samsara is not an essential Buddhist element and Nirvana just means some brain expando epiphany where you enjoy life as it is). As much as I do not want to protect Buddhism, this problem is about as detached from Buddhism as Santa's consumerist, Amazon-delivered Christmas is detached from Christianity.

About pseudo-spirituality: the modern corporate globohomo establishment is well aware that human beings have an inherent need for spirituality, and cannot function well long-term in a spiritually void environment. This is why they try to push the most harmless form of ritual exercises, like "mindfulness". Remember that it is stupid to obliterate when controlling something, giving it a harmless outlet is much more productive. This is the same with sex and porn, really, because porn is harmless (to the establishment). If lonely men had no outlet for their frustrated sexuality, things would happen. Give them porn and they are kept in this sedated state. You can see this pattern of redirection with just about every element of human psychology and social needs. I've come to this conclusion by observing my cat: cats are highly individualistic and cannot be trained via conditioning like dogs. You cannot tell a cat to stop scratching the couch. So what you do is give the cat a scratchpost so the cat scratches that instead of your couch. The corporate globohomo is doing exactly that with every unfulfilled need. Scratchposts. Harmless, disposable, inconspicuous scratchposts.

This is not the problem with Buddhism you ignorant mongoloid, it was never adopted as a state religion in China, it's persecuted as much as any other religion.

I am talking about early Christians. Everything about Christianity was about humility and submission before God. You're crazy if you think that Christians were allowed to be "individualistic" when a core tenet of Christianity has been charity, and loving one's neighbor as yourself.
In any case I don't want to lose focus here, the comparison with Buddhism is retarded. The fat burger retard here >>19453558 would say the same thing about Christianity had Amazon used the wording "prayer box" instead of "meditation box" or whatever the fuck. He's an insincere underage retard who is pointlessly making an argument against Buddhism specifically, when he's actually making an argument against any form of religiosity or spirituality. He's a nihilist with nothing to say, and cares about nothing including being right about where the blame is. What I am saying is that Buddhism doesn't matter per se, what really matters to the establishment is the destruction of native traditional values, namely Christianity. Buddhism is simply adopted because much of it is lost in translation, it is poorly adoptable because Buddhist institutions are rare, and so on. What matters to the establishment is keeping people away from structured forms of spirituality which may become a thread to the prosumer lifestyle.

Good posts but I disagree with the conspiratorial flavor of these ideas. The "establishment" doesn't do things like notice trends and push ideas with any sort of centralized foresight and planning. It's natural to personify market forces and elite intentions and needs for the sake of brevity but you go too far when, in comparing mindfulness to a scratching post, you implicitly compare "the globohomo" to "a cat owner." It's much more distributed and emergent than that.

Most news stories aren't even centrally directed from within a media outlet. It just happens naturally that the narratives that come out of mainstream news and colleges and official propaganda come to roughly agree. For one, they're all serving the same class of people who share a large set of shared interests, and the same system that nurtures all of them. Journalists are educated in the colleges. And they all reinforce each other because citing each other as sources bolsters their apparent credibility. The globohomo memeplex itself is more of a single living entity than any group of its proponents comprise.

I too wish there was a book on this. There’s a lot that could be said. Many people try to mix in pagan eastern doctrines with Christianity, not realizing that they are diametrically opposed in many ways, especially with Buddhism. Buddhism is the perfect control mechanism because of how close in many respects it is to the sort of reductionistic materialism that is the guiding ideology of our modern societies. The man and woman of Buddhism are not an integral unity of body, soul and spirit created in the image and likeness of the Holy Trinity, but rather an impermanent bundle of aggregates (skhandas) none of which have any sort of self-nature / essence in themselves. This is identical with modern materialism, as much as Buddhists would wish to deny it. This sort of idea is perfect for control. If you tell people they have no self, that the world is just suffering and the solution is to just meditate it away until you kill your ego and artificially numb yourself, they will be the perfect worker drones for Amazon and other corporations. Christianity on the other hand recognizes the value of persons that they are created in the divine image, that they are more than just atomized individuals, and that they deserve dignity and love. Buddhism is all about numbing that infinite thirst for God that humanity has at its core. This is what Duhkha is fundamentally, and this is why humanity feels so alienated in this world compared to the animals.

The Lotus Sutra teaches all beings will eventually become Buddhas, without fail, and that the Buddha's lifespan is eternal, free from suffering, delusion, or defilement. Of the 10 realms, Buddhahood is highest, and the 9 realms preceding are the 9 causes, with Buddhahood being the 1 effect.

It's impossible for a worldview like this to subjugate a buddhist. Like Nichiren says "trading one's life for the Dharma is like trading rocks for gold". Buddhists like this do not want to mindlessly consume, nor slave away, nor will they tolerate ignorance and untruth.

Samsara as it's recognized is seen only in ignorance. Ignorance is the 9 causes. The antithesis is wisdom, which produces Buddhahood. Eternal, pure blissful, and unobstructed. Filled with power to liberate other living beings and indestructible.

This is so far beyond the 'petty kings' of the rich caste that it is inconceivable to the best of minds. Believing the rich can subjugate everybody is exactly what the petty tyrants wish people to believe, but in truth, if everybody were to see their pitiful weakness all at once, their power would be less than single plant over the rest of humans.

Anon, you are submitting entirely to God in Christianity. Christianity always calls to humbleness and to renounce what is on Earth in order to embrace the next life in the Kingdom of Heaven. "He that loveth his life shall lose it; and he that hateth his life in this world shall keep it unto life eternal." John 12:25. As I said, while this does not equate to the complete annihilation of the self that is practiced in Buddhism, as far as what the burger tard from before was concerned about, there's no practical difference. He would have complained about Christianity just the same, and his argument is crass and poorly thought out because of a personal, emotional bias.

Maybe lay organizations vs joining a Church or authority with "Authority"? I think it's why Protesntantism in the United States has been very strong, even if perhaps a few protestant groups died, they weren't one central authority so Prostestantism will never die. Probably also why Buddhist lay groups like Soka Gakkai are so successful, there are no actual Buddhist Masters or perceived living buddhas to answer to, nor an unbroken lineage to be adhered to, just a laity and a few priests in said laity to stay successful.

If people are more interested in supporting their relatively small religious movement, which is far stronger than their belief in a government or any other kind of worldly power, there's no way globohomo will ever break them. The genuineness of whoever believes their religion enough to start a small lay movement that gathers steam is just proof of their force of will above anybody in goverment or with globohomo agenda, who can only control people with fear to side with them.

Beautiful is the Liberal Democracy that is embodiment of this.

That is correct and it is which not only goes against meme ethics, but against logic. Of course this would not be possible with conscientious and decisive populace, with everything to lose (family, identity, faith, possesions...), this is where War on Religion come with it's intent, and as you have put it to enforce State Atheism is naive, it gets replaced by harmless form of it (See liberal muslims, westernized Buddhists, Evangelicucks etc...).

For instance irrational geopolitics is presumption that ordinary American would directly benefit from High Cabal hegemonic takeover, while the opposite is true. In pursuit of global control, ordinary American lives worse and worse. There are more specific instances, but one big is these lock downs which in a sense have their own benefit to Globohomo while draining everything, even possessions and interaction ( even camps in Australia).
