You're complicating things.

There's nothing to learn.

I'm recommend Mahāyāna

>Theravada
They missed concept of immortal puggala(soul). Literally Theravada don't believe in soul, so Famous Chinese teacher Daoshen questioned: “If in sansare is absent constant “I”, then is there constant “I” in the nirvana? If “I” does not exist, the fact that then enters into the nirvana?”

I'm well informed. Buddhism is the old path. Christ will come back. Before physically seeing Him, follow Him and God by spirit.
>I am not Christian, I just use english words. Maitreya and Dharmakaya are buddhist translations of Christ and God.

God I wanna throw up

Dharmakaya means awakened seeing, god doesn't mean that.

Christ is not my friend, guy.

I'd say look into the various Tibetan schools and then work the tantra they stole it from. If you're going to be a smug fuck, you can't be doing it from a palacial monastery. There's a fun book on the mahasiddhas worth reading for the lelz if anything.

>The Dharmakāya (Sanskrit: धर्मकाय; Pali: धम्मकाय, lit. "truth body" or "reality body") is one of the three bodies (trikaya) of the Buddha in Mahayana Buddhism. Dharmakāya constitutes the unmanifested, "inconceivable" (acintya) aspect of a Buddha, out of which Buddhas arise and to which they return after their dissolution.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dharmak%C4%81ya
In this sense the Dharmakaya seems to be identical with the Para Brahman of Hinduism and Christ with the Kalki avatar of Vishnu.

It is truly a shame that Christianity does not embrace its Dharmic essence and insists with being intertwined with Semitic desert mythologies, endless fictional camel-jokey patriarch genealogies and resentful slave morality.

namaste bro I am fullzen Buddhist monk

I have been studying Buddhism for ten years now. I wouldn't worry too much about what school to subscribe too. More important than doctrine is practice. All schools of Buddhism have something unique to offer -- different strokes for different folks and all. As long as you're reading and practicing you won't go wrong.


Here's two books that I found enlightening on Buddhism:

These are scholarly tomes but they are extremely informative. Good luck on your journey, friend.

all "schools" of buddhism are corrupt and diluted.
I've tried them all.
just do it alone like the Buddha.

>implying the buddha existed
Haven fun pursuing an "enlightenment" that doesn't exist and was invented so monks could swindle the common people.

I think lineage is important. I would suggest looking up what buddhist centers you have in your neighbourhood

there is nothing to learn.
just be and breathe.

Ive been a born Buddhist I guess. Never really gave into any concept of anything, just lived.

Fall into self morality, and morality will fall unto you. When you live and do things, you realize what and what not should be done. You see and hear language from others and develop a scope of difference, a difference that you decided whether or not you want to partake in.
