Fuck, are all Buddhists like this? A few months ago he would've stood up for himself.
Bhuddism is too alien for westeners to get right.

Get the stupid cunt to light himself on fire or to butcher families with rudimentary weapons if he wants to be traditional about his retarded beliefs
>>2255728
only normies care about normie things
What you're describing isn't Buddhism, it's some weird emulation of Taoistic Wu-Wei.
Get it right, retard.

Dude is far too enlightened to give a fuck anymore.
Pacifism has issues.
>>2255728
Are you implying he's not an atheist anymore with the first line of your post? Because Buddhism doesn't really have to include theistic belief.
>>2255728
Buddhism is too pure for westerners

At least he'd be getting somewhere

Sometimes ignoring shitty behavior and nonreaction to provocation can work but the Buddha never said be a ballless pussy. This is just as bad as Christianity's misinterpreted "turn the other cheek" shit. He needs to (re)grow a spine.
>>2257540
>he needs to commit uncompassionate actions based on a deluded appraisal of reality
No he doesn't. She and you suffer, not him
>>2257594
Buddha took the middle way though. Complete negation of life is attachment to the negation, the ideal is complete oneness with your being
>>2255728
Buddhism is a life denying slave morality that needs to be eradicated along with the Abrahamic filths
>>2257604
It's fucking hilarious that you're mad that this dude's not mad. You sound like a homo: why are you obsessed with him? He's obviously not ruffled about it, so why do you care so much? Marry him, if it bothers you to the extent that you have to make a thread to vent about it.
He's doing it right: he gives no fucks about something inevitable. And really, she's the manager, so it's not as though he could do anything to begin with,
>>2257624
I'm not that guy, you're projecting your own obession an awful lot. If he's truly at peace with being a pushover then that's fine, but if he's fighting intensely against his instincts out of a desire to negate himself, he's doing it wrong.

This sounds kinda like the spooks thing.

He will snap and shoot you all.
That shit is not healthy.

There you have it. He's not a Buddhist, he's a libcuck that's projecting his own westernized cuck ideals into what he thinks is Buddhism.

When you want to compromise with sin, suddenly all the crystal-clear passages are found to have been "misinterpreted".

millennial cuck neo-speak for "woman i don't like"
"Daichsun Tngri, also known as Dayisud Tngri and Dayičin Tngri, is a Mongolian war god "of a protective function"to whom captured enemies were sometimes sacrificed. One of the equestrian deities within the Mongolian pantheon of 99 tngri, Dayisun Tngri may appear as a mounted warrior. Some of his characteristics may be the result of the "syncretistic influence of Lamaism" (Tibetan Buddhism); the fifth Dalai Lama composed invocations to this deity."

Blood for the bloodgod.
Skulls for Bhuddas lap.

buddhists can worship gods if they want

How is she benefiting from this? Is he losing anything? If this is the case, then he is a fool. If not, then you two are just rustled.
Also, it does seem like he's adopted some wo wo western interpretation.
>>2255728
>you just don't low about his and her tantra lessons after work
Bhuddism's less passive than people think. There's a lot of angry deities that wreck evildoers shit.
