How would he have been able to know this if he hadn’t had it?

>>16922986
That's precisely why early Buddhists played up how much of a fucking ARYAN BVLL he was, to duck the
>lmfao your religion's founder was an incel!
card. Apparently, the fact that monks are "off-limits" makes them irresistible to women, but this isn't a strictly Buddhist thing (Christian, Taoist, Buddhist, and Hindu monks report it). But then, maybe this is just ecumenical Skillful Means to hoodwink men into giving up sex and finding the spiritual life.

>>16922986
Thats the point. Incels can never touch the fire and learn that it burns you. They are damned to live in permanent illusion. Even spirituality is only reserved for chads

I'm a Buddhist and I have sex all the time. It's because it's almost a neutral activity for me at this point, like taking a shower.

Oof.

Explain it

>>16922942

The point is that direct experience allows you to realize quickly that nothing satisfies ultimately. You can understand that as a poor person who's had little pleasure, but it's harder; you have to be able to perceive why you tired of a particular pleasurable activity and extrapolate that to all others. If you have a decent, reflective mind you can do this faster than most normies.

Samsara is just the hedonic treadmill, and the more time you spend on the treadmill the better your chances of recognizing it. Which means, of course, that if you're a rich sybarite and still don't manage to perceive dukkha, you're probably hopelessly blind.

Even incels can understand that after the billionth fap that something is empty and gross

>>16923442
Incels dont want sex just to nut for hedonic pleasures. They want validation, love and affection that come with it

>>16923472
And that's why those that want it enough become the girlfriend. But they don't find it to be empty because their main theme on mysticism is love and not asceticism and detachment. But sometimes love serves as its own kind of detachment along the way. So for extreme spiritual incels a pathetic form of bhakti is created. But they have to accept this love more than they love people's opinions about them being the most pathetic human being in the world. Then they have a wonderful Journey, them and their Goddess as they together become enlightened and liberated. In this way Gods can become enlightened too, only one of us has to become human that way. He is very polite to make me not have to suffer Humanity too. I literally get to have my cake and eat it too and he sacrificed himself for me by enduring an even grosser human condition.

>>16923472
>They want validation
Biggest point.

>>16923549
There is no end to this though aswell and it doesn't make you more happy in the long run.

>>16923472

>validation, love, and affection

All of which are equally, though less obviously, empty. For these guys, they need to get a girlfriend they love and lose her to finally comprehend the nature of reality and become sufficiently disillusioned to seek the absolute.

>>16923549
Is the want for validation a primal biological need or a sociological phenomen?

>>16923576
Truth

.t was that guy

>>16923576
Holy fuck same

>All of which are equally, though less obviously, empty. For these guys, they need to get a girlfriend they love and lose her to finally comprehend the nature of reality and become sufficiently disillusioned to seek the absolute.
So then it's still all about their own egos. But there is a kind of love for others that is selfless because it flows out from itself to another.

We are to quench these things too because the goal is our own Bliss and happiness. it's only my satisfaction that is important, everything is empty especially my beliefs.

Just like the Christians that say their salvation had nothing to do with them and it was all God, which is their form of self-righteousness... The form of self-righteousness of Buddhists is that they are meaningless, don't exist, and only this satisfies.

The Buddha was a Chad all right, a Chad that never comprehended Real Love and got worn out by pussy so much that he sought for the cessation of himself. Only then could the burning of the gonorrhea cease.

The Bodhisattva chose such a birth precisely because it would prevent people from being able to object
>You say that all emotions are suffering, but this is just a cope. If you had experienced X, you wouldn't say that
The Buddha has lived countless past lives, has experienced everything there is to experience -- and is aware of it too. Meanwhile you're just some bitter shitposter without a real argument.

what did they mean by this?

This sounds familiar

>>16924739
Op has a clear point Buddha life was easy mode so he does not deserve worship, you can't say the same about Jesus

>>16926669
Some translations have it as "his hands could touch his knees without bending". It's an interesting list, because it's trying to make him priestly (long ears, thing limbs, large number of teeth, the bump on his head), but also manly (thick thighs, blue eyes, strong jaw), while also making him divine-but-not-a-god (the aura, his forehead emitting light).

Pajeets really haven't changed at all.

Anyone have an opinion on this one way or the other? It's supposedly (although being executed by some kind of cult leader charlatan) a secular academic account of people who could be said to be "enlightened". There's some case snippets in the paper, mostly it just reads like some kind of persistent dissociation desu. Is that what "enlightenment" is supposed to be?

>haha fuck dravidians

>>16922942
>giga normie
no, he was a giga chad who got everything most normal people could ever want out of life. that's the point, he achieved everything you were "supposed to" and it still wasn't enough. when he tells you "pussy aint shit", it's because he literally knows this to be true. why would you trust some loser incel to tell you that giving into your basest desires will not make you happy, only a chad like siddharta is in any position to tell you this

>>16926648
Why are his eyes grey?

jesus was:
>divine by birthright
>daddy is all knowing and all powerful but has such a ego that he'll send you to hell for all eternity if you do not spend your entire life as a pious jew
>jesus's mission is basically to shill for his daddy and tell people the deal is now open to non-jews
>really no reason for anyone to be sent to hell beyond his daddy's ego so its all kind of moot

vs. buddha who
>experienced the rich and easy life everyone hopes for
>realized even this was unsatisfying
>through studying and meditating on his own, achieved enlightenment
>could've just stopped there, content with his own success, but instead spent the rest of his life trying to help other people do the same

buddha was actually self-less and deserves worship as thanks for trying to help us all achieve enlightenment. jesus was just sent here to explain new rules for the fucked up system his daddy is responsible for creating

>>16925977
"well-retracted" means what in this context?

>>16927125
he had a retracted penis which he psychically projected an image of into someones mind in one sutta, it goes to show what a conman he was, real spiritual teachers convince people through their words and presence, not through wacky hijinks

>>16925977
>area below armpit well filled

Is that their way of saying he has sweet Arnold pecs?

>>16925977
>Thighs like a royal stag
>Full, round shoulders
>Lion-shaped body
>Body erect and upright
>Golden-hued body
No doubt in my mind this nigga was all about the iron pill, holy fuck. Spiritual enlightenment must've been a secondary consequence, the true esoterism is clearly the Buddha's workout routine.

You are comparing Jesus divine aspects with Buddha human aspects. Jesus was also a human being you know and he did all those things you listed without being a degenerate beforehand

>>16926708
>>16927098
>>16927285
You don't, and frankly can't ever since his Nirvana, worship the Buddha in any meaningful sense, the comparison isn't apt at all.
