So you read Siddartha, expected something about every world religion, and got something about a guy holding his arms up to the sun? I'm not sure if I follow you. To be honest I have little confidence that even you follow you.

You should be accustomed to people like OP by now. The modern Western humanist, naturalist religion called 'Buddhism' is very commonly known throughout the world.

Though OP's problem is that he's displaying an actually Buddhist book, saying that he expected from it to be like other Traditional scriptures and instead he got the 'truth', whereas he should've shown some generic neo-spiritual, theosophist or new-age non-sense book, as that kind of thing is what constitutes the basis of the Modern Western religion bearing the same name as the Traditional Indic religion.

>> No.1276568

>>1276549
I don't think Siddhartha is an actual Buddhist book. It was written by one of the same western "new agers" which you claim hijacked the religion.

>> No.1276573

>>1276568
Correct. It's a novel moreso, which makes comparing it to Traditional scriptures even more absurd.
