I don't know a lot about Buddhism.

Not all but quite a lot of the literature I've read and the Buddhists I've talked to have always had something significant to say about language. Usually it is that language is deception, "watch your clever tongue", that sort of thing.

It is a very large wall to get over. The Buddha not taking a stance on things metaphysical but then engaging in conversations about reincarnation is also puzzling.

I would say the two main problems I see with Buddhism are with it's strange stance on language and its various stances on reincarnation/metaphysics. For example, say you want to get into a conversation about how to define and categorize the concept of suffering. You most likely would get a puzzling response.

Japanese art is closer to the aesthetic I'm looking for. The impressionists like Monet and Renoir got fairly close, but still a mile off.
