>not realizing that the Buddha just flipped Upanishadic teachings upside down in an attempt to make them more accessible to commoner plebs who weren't born (because they weren't virtuous enough in their previous life) into the hereditary priestly caste who happen to have the very high average IQs needed to fully understand spiritual metaphysics

>not realizing that the reason the perennialists always claim Buddha was secretly teaching Upanishadic teachings is not because they're trying to sideline or denigrate Buddhism but because when you fully study and read through the primary sources of both Vedanta and Buddhism (under the mainstream Buddhist interpretation) the later seems like such garbage by comparison that the only way to redeem it is to say he was approaching the former from another angle, they're actually being kind to Buddhism by doing so instead of conceding that it's trash in reality and not just mostly misunderstood

Pretty based. Buddhism is what you need for a civilization of nail salons.

Caring about ancient gibberish is just old school autism from the days before sonic the hedgehog and other such modern aspie obsessions existed.

Buddhism (like Christianity) devolved from the central character's teachings. Gautama Buddha came from an Aryan warrior clan and was pretty based all around. The Pali canon is the best version of Buddhism.

yes, i've read a lot of Evola

Is it possible to practice non-sectarian Buddhism without the Western scientism?

i don't know shit desu. surely there's some good stuff on meditation and asceticism that you can pick up from it. i personally believe that *racial* reincarnation is a healthy belief system.
