WE MAY FOLLOW DIFFERENT SECTS OF BUDDHISM BUT WE ARE ULTIMATELY UNITED BY THE BUDDHA ☸️ ❤.LOVE MY MAHAYANA AND VAJRAYANA FRIENDS FROM THERAVADA.PEACE AND LOVE EVERYONE.
Yea but theravada is the true path cause it’s the oldest
Buddhism is not sects ...
Sects characterized by using religion, philosophy, believe in such way to manipulate vulnerable people to act even suicidal..
Buddhism does not do it.
Vajrayana has lot of added things.Theravada is the oldest buddhism
Theravada is too selfish
@@kameronarmitage4448 no bro meet one monk yourself
@@kameronarmitage4448Theravhada is not selfish, it is individualist, just like christ, because God made us individualistic
@@kameronarmitage4448explain
@TheLoopedSquareis RACIST? Explain
My grandfather converted to Zen Buddhism after years of closeted practice when my grandmother, a Polish orthodox Catholic who had fled an occupied Poland.
Only when she died did he feel the freedom to take all her pope photos down & bring his secret basement shrine/altar (the basement was also his construction room so she would never have had any reason to be in there) to the upper levels 😮
I was an atheist; more of a scientist really and a realist- on a good day, I could be cautiously optimistic lol
Little did I know what I’d face in the decades to come ; and the series of synchronicities (or coincidences? 😅) that would take me down a path of Medicine Buddha & a Green Tara thangka lol. I converted completely to Mahayana Buddhism over 10 years ago now 🖤☸️🕉️🪷
Mahayan buddhism is just hinduism I guess
@@proximacentury1110 huh????
@@LivinLuxuriously I mean the person who started it was a hindu brahmin
Original buddhism is Theravada which is practised by only few people
@@proximacentury1110very much no. Mahayana is still very close to Theravada with the only difference of delaying enlightenment with the goal to become a Buddha. Mahayana still follows all the original teachings of the Buddha, but also uses the heart sutra. Buddhism and Hinduism are very similar but have very very big differences, such as the fact Buddhists don’t believe in a self, an eternal soul, or a creator god. Buddhists also believe in the middle way and reject any idea of a “shortcut” to enlightenment or Buddhahood, which would make Vajrayana the closest to Hinduism but also directly in conflict with the teachings of the Buddha.
@@proximacentury1110also Mahayana is an umbrella term for a lot of different sects of Buddhism that use heart sutra and delay enlightenment, such as Tibetan and Zen
Sometimes it seems to me that Vajrayan has adopted the teachings of the Shaivite kapalika sect. It may be possible that the Buddhists took education from the Kapalikas and turned against the Kapalika Shaivism but adopted the deities. By occupying the Kapalik monasteries, he tried to teach Buddhism to the Kapalik followers, but he himself adopted their tantric rituals and teachings.Whatever may be said, there seems to be some relation between Vajrayana and Kapaliko. Because there are many Hindu deities in Vajrayana. And even after reading the story of Trilokiteshwar / Vajrapani and Umma Maheshwar, I see some truth in my guess.
@@Odin_Borson yup
Purana written in 1400ad Buddhism from 600 BC
@unkownnnnnn exactly
@unkownnnnnn Mahayana god Tara.
@unkownnnnnn see the timeline of Mahayana Buddhism and Shaktism,Shaivism etc
Buddhism was one ideology developed by Bhagwan Buddha later gautam Buddha went on that path
There have been so many buddhas on this Bharat land and still there are so many buddhas walking around us and they are at Himalayan mountains especially at Kailash mountain
Where can I find full interview please

Does anyone know his name? Who is this? I love his vibe! I need to know more
kuch bhi bhai...timeline to dekh lete. Theravada then mahayana then Vajrayana
Budda got Inspired by Samyak Darshan of sage kapil... Kapilvastu got there name by this sage....Sage Kapil Samyak Darshan is total similar of Tripitaka if you don't agree go and Read Samyak Darshan
Vajrayana is heavily influenced by shaivism
Doing a bunch of tantric practices isn’t a shortcut lol, shakyamuni (nirmanakaya)points to Amitabha (sambhogakaya) siddhartha is guru/teacher amitabha is yidam/meditational deity, western pureland is your hope of not regressing, doing a bunch of mudras, thinking you grasp emptiness when you really don’t, tantric practices of visualizing buddhas, these things do not guarantee parinibanna, and you could end up going to a celestial abode and falling back into lower delusional states after that birth, even a lot of tibetan buddhist are starting to realize this
Why is the monk speaking to nothing 😂😂
Because there is *nothing*.
Acha hahahaha jake jai bhim bolte rho lol
Since ur brain is filled with nothing as well u don't understand
Shunyata.
I feel Mahayana is completely like Hinduism.
And Vajrayana is totally trantic.
How ? Mahayana rejects the Atman and Creator...
@@marshallmathers4738 no in the field of worshipping God goddesses... Doing bhakti in society
@@marshallmathers4738 Advaita Vedanta is non-dualistic, so there is no atma. Below is a link to Swami Sarvapriyananda’s lecture/speech where he explains the similarity between Vedanta and one of the final stages of the Buddhist Madhyamaka school the Shentong school.

Theravada Buddhism is the oldest and the closest to Buddha's real teachings
Who is this ?
Palga Rinpoche from Ladhak.
Namo Buddhay Jay Bhim 🙏🙏🙏
What hindu today is actually combination of vajrayan and tantrayan Buddhism
What?
Lol
It's Mahayana not mayana
Avalokitesvara=Shiva. .. Buddha=Vishnu... Tara=parvati... Cundi=Durga.... Vajrayan=Hindu....
Hinyan real Buddhism follow samrat ashoka
He is not fighting with you.
Why thervadis are so agreesive.
Why you can't learn tollerance from mahayana and vajrayana.
Yes theravada is real buddhism
respect all paths
Vajrayan Buddhism found in odisha.
not true
But, why do Mahayana and Vajrayana Buddhist Monks and Nuns eat meat which violets the fundamental vow in Buddhist teaching? The Buddha might be sad to see today's practices.
Lord Buddha never said don't eat meat. Yeah but we are prohibited from killing animals but when it's served we eat. Theravada Buddhist doesn't eat Beef. But Tibetan Buddhists eat beef
@@Lawgyan2023Buddha himself ate meat lol. Then how can he preach to others to not eat lmao 😅😂
Acorrding to buddism they never said eat meat can't be come budda
You shouldn't drink alcohol but if you eat meat it is up to you.
@@kevinharris9371 Siddhartha Gautama ate meat when he wasn't a Buddha and living in the palace. When he left the palace and attained enlightenment, he said that no one should eat meat and shouldn't kill animals.
Only Mahayana carries Buddha's teaching strictly. Theravada and Vajrayana are born out of Hinduism...constituting the very rituals and brahminical traditions from Hinduism which Buddha was against.
Thats your pov , but you need to be inclusive that they were sects of buddhism, dont alter the thing because they favour your idealogy 😅
@@yash137buddhist Absurd.... Hinduism is older than Buddhism.
@@Harry-bd6pb
This person is likely attached to their perception of it all.
@@Janibek35 ya and I very well know he is a Neo Buddhist, when he said Vajrayana was born out of hinduism.
@@yash137buddhist i didn't meant Neo Buddhists are bad, but it's obvious that navyana is more political, it different when it comes to purpose of life. Therevad is the purest form , the person clearly tried to say mahayana isn't part of buddhism, that's why I opposed him ,
Everything was good when Buddhism was only limited with Siddharth buddha and his past budhhas. Its Division and branches are deviding my mind too. Mahayana includes Hinduism in it and vajrayana includes trantric and shaman things its blasting my mind and creating trust issues with these two branches and their relationship with Main Buddhism(Hiyaan) or Therwada. I better follow the Buddha given by Dr Ambedkar 😅
Neather mahayan nor vajrayan best is navyan buddhism ☸️
You mean 'Bhimayana' ?
Ayo! i say navayan is the worst form of buddhism.
As an atheist who belives in sanatan and buddhism philosophy, i say navayan ruined buddhism beacuse they didnt follow moral rules of buddhism they just adapted a literal fifferent religion which has nothing to do with buddhism. They eat meat, they disrespect other religion and branch just like you. They also cause other buddhiat to fight and call vjrayan buddhiat pakhandi why?
I heard the pratidnya of navayan and i want to say what the f is that??! You peoples literally diareapect other religion in your 22 pratidyna seriously?
This is not buddhism who hate other religion
So mahayan and vajrayan are best and worst is navayan
