I didn't see anything wrong with the story, in fact I think it had a message that we could all learn from.
You can attack me for supporting fabianfred if you want, and it wont bother me one bit.
And what difference does it make if fabianfred is ordained or not? Does that mean we should treat him different than any other sentient creature.
Wow...I cant believe some of the non-buddhist behavior from not only this forum, but other so called Dhamma forums as well.
I may be a lot of things, I may not be enlightened...but I am not mean.

It's up to you of course, but no need to leave Buddhism. Buddhism is full of Buddhists, not Buddhas.Tree wrote: Internet Dhamma..... Full of a lot of that.

We're not perfect . . . yet.

I can understand why you might feel like that, there are a lot of nasty ninnies out there, but don't let a few narrow minded mean spirits obscure the glory of the Dhamma. Insincere practicioners are to be found in all walks of life, unfortunately on the net their insincerity can be hidden behind manufactured respectability.
Keep with the Dhamma!
Re: Buddha is fake
All living and non-living in this world and entire universe and beyond is a form of energy . All these energy are not pure but moving towards a pure / sound energy of emptiness ...free of any feeling / emotion etc.....THE BUDDHA .
Buddha is not human or in any form , in any shape or in any awareness.....Buddha is pure....EMPTINESS ....
Siddharta found Buddha from his fear of old,sick , death and fear of not knowing . He understood Buddha and all Pollutant , in human case call "life"....he understood these so call suffering and he did not feel any suffering after he found Buddha .
Therefore ALL SUFFERING SHOULD END AFTER SIDDHARTA FOUND BUDDHA . i belief he was WRONGLY QUOTED...thay is why suffering continue till now.....
Buddha is NOT FAKE . In Buddha is empty..pure without any emotion , no right or wrong ......nothing without any pollutant.

Re: Buddha is fake
I always belief in Siddharta search .....if you sincerely observe nature you could see Buddha is in all. Sincerely give love , share love and accept love , DO NOT -fear to learn , fear to share , fear to accept you will move to higher awareness .
You know surely.

You are expressing , in limited English, a pastiche of Mahayana views . This is a Theravadin website....I am not psychic but I foresee problems.
Re: Buddha is fake
Sir .....pls do not mistaken me ........I am totally aware and sincerely want to learn.
My way of searching Buddha may be different from yours but I respect that ,knowing by my belief that Buddha could be learned from all sources........

Re: Buddha is fake
The Theravada view is that the Buddha was an historical person...not an abstract principle or supersoul, and that his teaching is best preserved in the Pali Canon. If you want to come to an understanding of the Theravada then you need need at least some knowledge of the Canon...where you will find what the Buddha said his own teaching was about.
Re: Buddha is fake
sir , I belief that siddharta dead for thousand of years ....even his actual year of death still in question or his last meal. I dont read monk's book but I like gossip about his life just like I gossip about Micheal Jackson .
BUT ....I want to belief as little of the so call teaching as possible because no one can be sure what is actual .
I belief his fear , his search and his finding of Buddha . I belief is his wish we explore and continue to find answer. I belief he was wrongly quoted that cause suffering to continues.....
I dont wish to believe work of monk is associated with Buddha ....infact no one can claim ...all of us are too far from Buddha..simply because each of us human , animal ,plant , virus and non-living is equal ....and in some way expressing Buddha spirit..sorry in advance

No need to apologise.

The Theravada takes its postion from a very different point of view.
That Gautama Buddha was the Buddha for this age. That he taught his dhamma , the dhamma that he rediscovered when he became Enlightened. That this dhamma is best preseved in the Pali Canon and that living the dhamma lies in applying those teachings for ourselves...not discovering our own truth..because our own truth will always be mundane and limited.
