The legend of how Genghis Kahn came to revere Buddhism. Not sure how accurate it is for a story historically but one of my favorite movie scenes nonetheless.

@VictorMcCheeseEsq

This is a thread discussing the beliefs of Buddhism which obviously you have no intention of doing.

I started reading last night before I fell asleep, because of the “Carl Jung meets the Buddha” video you posted. I found a really great online essay at:

Carl Jung & Buddhism Part I

Then I came across this excerpt:

‘Was Jung’s growing belief in reincarnation also embarrassing in some way? Apparently it was, according to a colleague of mine. This colleague visited Zurich recently and called upon one of Jung’s daughters in order to interview her specifically about Jung’s past life beliefs. She told him that her father had written quite a bit about the subject in his autobiography, but that it had all been changed by the Zurich editors.

“How do you know?” my colleague asked.

In answer to his question she led him into another room and showed him a glass case containing the manuscript of Memories, Dreams, Reflections. She then proceeded to show him where certain words and passages had been altered by editors to tone down the specific reincarnation content. Apparently Jung’s family and editors had put pressure on Jung to make changes out of some fear that he might appear senile to the public.’

That made me sad. I didn’t realise the guy was censored in that way, why would anyone censor a mind like that?

He really was a intellectual trailblazer concerning human consciousness.

I’m pretty sure that’s what I did. Change your title then to ‘Flattering internet stories blah blah’.I just assumed that your claims to be a buddhist were satirical. You are about as far removed from a buddhist as anyone I have encountered
So you want me to do your bidding? After deliberately trying to annoy me with your endless clownfaces and emojis? More male entitlement. It never ends on here
