You'd be right if it weren't an objective fact that there is a very autistic Dutchman who really, REALLY doesn't like Buddhism who spent two years straight spamming the board.

Just because you're a paranoid schizophrenic doesn't mean that the Glowies aren't actually legitimately after you.

Yeah, Guenonfag has done more for Buddhism on this board and more to damage the reputation of Advaita Vedanta than a thousand of these >>17026773 seething walltexts have. It's a shame, we could have interesting threads on this stuff, but these autists just throw shit every opportunity.

Go post your naked body again in a pathetic attempt to make yourself a forced meme.

Why do you think people don't remember? It was only a few months ago.

>Wrong, his ‘philosophy’ comes straight from the Upanishads
This means as much as a Calvinist saying "Calvinism is simply what the Bible says, just read it bro I'm the one who is right and not any other interpretation." Except you are more like a minor cult than a major branch, since most Hindus disagree with you too. They're the ones who invented the term crypto-buddhist (prachanna buddha, literally hidden buddhist).

Simply repeating "my scripture says I'm right that my scripture is right about how I'm right when I say my scripture is right" is meaningless. Why do you always do it? It's doubly weird considering that Shankara is so anti-scripture that most Hindus find him heretical and disrespectful of the actual religious parts of Hinduism. You know, all those Vedas that the word Vedanta refers to, the ones Shankara says are optional once you've mastered his Buddhis.. I mean, "Advaita" philosophy.

>Shankara wrote that the sruti is an infallible source of truth and he condemned independent reasoning
Nobody agrees with you on this. Academics don't, philosophers don't, Hindus don't. Shankara plagiarized Buddhist rationalist idealist arguments against revelation.


>it is modeled on monasticism as taught in the Upanishads
Let me try your style of argument out for a change. "False, it is what I said, not what you say." Nah, that's retarded, so let me repeat: this is not what any scholar, western or Hindu, thinks. His followers adopted the institutions of Mahayana monasticism. Why did he know these so well that he could implement him? Hmm, it's almost as if he and his followers knew contemporary Buddhist institutions intimately...

I don't care about convincing you, I am just letting you know as always that Hindus find your westernized neo-vedantism heretical. Keep being mad that nobody wants to follow your Wikipedia understanding of a French Sufi LARPer's understanding of a tiny sect of Hinduism that almost no Hindus recognize.

is this the guenonfag reminiscences thread?
