>>19007670>Buddhism is cool and all but it’s probably one of the most nihilistic and life-negating religions there isBoth nihilism and eternalism are wrong views according to buddhism
>Nirvana is an alarming concept if you actually read into itwhat
>and Buddhism has this concept known as the “non-self” which essentially denies that there’s anything to a person that defines them as a distinct person.Non-self is not taken literally, it means that your consciousness undergoes a constant process of change and can't be identified as the same thing across time, not that there is literally no self. It's what modern science agrees with.
>Essentially you’re not a person in Buddhism, just a process.I mean you're the sum of all the elements that make up your mind yeah
>It’s really grim and there’s a reason why schools like Pure Land arose and became the predominant form of Buddhism.Because Mahayana chinkshit is more accessible than authentic buddhism.
>Because traditional Buddhism is fucking miserable shit.Accepting your condition as a mortal is just embracing realism, there won't be no almighty god to cover your ass when you make a mistake and you will be responsible for your actions.
