It will help you to realize that Spinoza's spider web is Indra's jeweled net. Meditate on this, for it is profound.

Some see the Buddha’s various lights
Variously shining throughout the world,
And some see too in the Buddhas light,
Buddhas displaying their mystic power.

Some see Buddhas oceans of clouds of light
Issuing from his pores of radiant hues
Showing the paths he practiced of yore,
Causing beings to deeply believe and enter Buddha’s knowledge.

Some see the Buddha’s adorning marks and blessings
And see where the blessings come from
The oceans of transcendent means he practiced of old
Are clearly seen in the Buddhas marks.

Buddhas qualities cannot be measured:
They fill the cosmos, without any bounds
These and the ranges of psychic powers
These beings can expound through Buddhas power.

Is this the one labelled as galaxy brain buddhism? Will this teach me how to make interdimensional travels and harvest buddha powers to rule world or am I wasting my time?

Spinoza (pbuh) would put two spiders on the same web and observe them fighting one another because he was an accomplished Pokémon master. But on this web, Spinoza and his spiders were all interdependently reflected in one another. Each spider reflected the other and Spinoza, and he reflected both spiders. Because Spinoza and his spiders did not have independent self-natures, they were able to appear and have causal efficacy upon each other.

When you have "buddha powers," you won't want to use them to rule the world, because you will have transcended it. Ever wonder why the most powerful beings in history (Buddha, Jesus etc.) didn't conquer the world?

As for inter-dimensional travels, enlightened beings can perceive all realms of existence because they are above and beyond of it.

Start with Cleary's Entry Into the Inconceivable for a survey of Hua-Yen Buddhism, which is based [and redpilled] around the Avatamsaka Sutra. If you have are completely unfamiliar with Buddhism start at the top.

Things only exist as reflections of other things and also reflected in these other things? Isn't that just a reformulation of the heart sutra?

Why doesn't this chart include the lotus and diamond sutras? They're pretty important.

It's an interesting concept, but I don't get why they'd write about it again after the heart sutra did such a good job of explaining it in just a couple pages

For me, it's the diamond sutra.

Yeah after a quick research it seems to talk about a bunch of topics but I'm still not sure if it brings anything completely new to the table, maybe someone who's actually read it can say
