thanks for the link.Genjo Conan wrote: ↑Mon Apr 26, 2021 6:44 pm Ultimately there are no beings, no suffering, no end to suffering, etc. Relatively, there are. This is bog-standard Mahayana orthodoxy.
The Prajnaparamita in 10,000 Lines (Ch. 2.7) defines compassion thus:
So recognizing that ultimately there are no sentient beings doesn't mean nihilism; that would be a wrong view.If you ask what is ‘great compassion,’ it is unstinting loving kindness toward all sentient beings, when there are actually no sentient beings. That is called great compassion.
so you are saying this is not nihilism and is the view .
and this is about compassion?Though it seems like people are suffering and being killed, in reality no one suffers or is killed.
to me it is gross indifference to sentients sufferings.
so hey why not smash your head with a hammer and see if you suffer?
Or just shoot yourself in the head and see if you die.
of course the same guy preaching this stuff is waiting for his reward of enlightenment on his death bed and unto the Pure Land for eternity so i dunno...
