I have parted ways with Buddhism. There are many things about Buddhism that are very unethical, in my opinion. I did practice for one year and when I realized their “stunted growth,” I ended my studies and chose instead to grow.
Buddhism reached the 7th Ethic and then promotes the suppression of Emotions, which violates the 10th Ethic. They also “failed” the Ethical Core Lessons. Integrate all. Indulge in all. All Extremes are unhealthy.
Embrace Balance.
Energy can neither be created nor destroyed.
Energy is inside of us.
That Energy is “immortal.”
I believe “reincarnation” is just the transference of that Energy. I believe that Energy is sentient. I believe the Physical Body is a vessel for that Energy.
I believe religions “split hairs” over the interpretations and meanings of text translated by the 2nd Ethical Perspective and by people who did not experience the Philosophy.
Their interpretations are not relevant to me. I believe each one of us must experience the Philosophy to form our own translation.
I believe this lesson was talked by all three men/prophets/philosophers (The Buddha, Christ, and Mohammed) and also was missed by the masses.
There are people who experience and live the Journey.
There are people who read about the experience and the Journey of others.
There are people who preach on the experience and the Journey of others without ever having lived or experienced the Journey.
I believe only those who have experienced and live the Journey can understand it. And the lesson is “Live and Experience the Journey for yourself.”
But instead, too many people parrot and forget to live. No one is Living the Journey and Experiencing it, which is what the Message was. All have sinned. All have disobeyed. Which is why Consumption is rampant.
They have all abandoned The Journey.
