It is not really complicated. It has a known historical author, texts were transmitted by his own disciples and later written down. During his life time and after his passing away there were many disputes about the teachings. There had been three main Buddhist councils were held by learned monks and they too were historical. But as usual there were divisions and we have them here now. I have studied Medieval Christianity but it is the most confused and complex to get into the roots of the texts. Having learnt Classical Greek I gave up, and the debates are still raging. The hardest parts are to understand the teachings, as they are deeply philosophical. Mahayana is the most philosophical. Cultural practices, and rituals does not give any meaning, but that is how societies were built. Anyway you gave a good try. I have no qualm about it. Yes I do have a Buddhist major for my Uni degree but I am not a scholar nor an academic. I still study them along with Christian texts but more moving towards Buddhism as it make more sense to me, with authentic, historical texts (whether one agrees on the content is a different matter).

I Am Your Target Demographic Jesus Christ’s Visit To The Other Cultures Of The Earth: --------------- AND now, there are other sheep that the Lord visited to whom he taught the will of the Father in all things. For the Father had commanded His Son to give His gospel unto all of His children. 73 And did not the Lord say unto his disciples that he had other sheep which were not of this fold, and that he must bring them also unto the Father by teaching them his gospel? From the Bible: ------- John 10: 16 And other sheep I have, which are not of this fold: them also I must bring, and they shall hear my voice; and there shall be one fold, and one shepherd. 72 Yea, did not the Lord call these holy prophets and give unto them his commandments and teach unto them his gospel, which is the plan of the Father? And are we not all children of one God, even the Creator of our spirits, and the Creator who set in motion this system and order of nature that revolveth around the sun that He created to give life unto this planet on which we live? 18 And I have explained unto you that the Lord is no respecter of persons; and that one nation is just as important to him as another. And he sendeth forth his prophets among all his children, even unto as many as will hear his words. Few examples of Prophets from the different cultures: Akhenaton, prophet pharaoh of the Egyptian nation --------- 114 And the Holy Ghost came upon Akhenaton, and he believed the things which he had been taught by Ubaid. And in this manner, the Lord prepared a way whereby the Egyptian nation could receive his words, even by way of one of their kings. 122 And it came to pass that Akhenaton sat upon the throne of Egypt after his father died. And he caused the things that he had learned from Ubaid to be taught to the people. And he also withdrew the government support previously given to the priests of the other gods, and caused all to worship one god, even the God that he had been taught to worship by Ubaid. Confucius and Lao-tse ----------- 64 And I also have mentioned to you of Kung-fu-tse and Lao-tse, who were sent unto the people who are the descendants of Beneli and Cain; and these were sent at the beginning of the period known as the times. Zarathustra, the great prophet of the Persian empire --------- 56 And the Lord called Zarathustra to be a prophet and preach the things that he had learned from the angel, and also those things that he had learned from the ministrations of the Spirit in his youth. And he was taught the plan of God, who was called Ahura Mazda according to the language and the customs of the people. Mohammed ------ 44 And Jesus spoke unto Mohammed, calling him by name and teaching many things unto him which he had taught to his disciples during the days of his earthly ministry. 63 And now, the Lord did not want Mohammed to use the name of Jesus Christ among the people to whom he would be sent to teach his gospel. And the reason for which he commanded this of Mohammed, was because those who professed to be followers of Jesus Christ, even the Christians who were already many upon the earth, had corrupted the true gospel of the Father by the name of Jesus Christ. 70 And it came to pass that Mohammed went forth among the people and taught them the gospel of Jesus Christ, or the gospel of Allah, as he had been instructed by the Lord to give unto the people. Gautama or Budha and Rishabha --------------- 66 And they were called Gautama, who was later called Buddha, and Rishabha. 67 And these were both holy prophets who taught the people the plan of the Father, having received their instruction and their callings from the Lord in their own times. --------------- 69 And in the latter days there shall be many religions and divers churches which preach many forms of these religions. But the main religions of the latter days shall be those which are based upon the corrupted teachings of these holy prophets that I have mentioned in this record. 70 Behold, these religions shall be known as the Muslim, and the Hindu, and the Buddhist and the Jew, and the Christian. And from these shall come forth many sects, each teaching many different forms of these religions. 71 And now, these things have been made known unto you that ye might know the mind and the will of the Father concerning all of His children. 78 And it came to pass that when these great prophets of whom I have made mention died, their followers began to corrupt their teachings, and in many ways changing the pure gospel that was given unto them by these prophets. 79 And after they had corrupted their teachings, they began to teach for doctrine the precepts and commandments of men mingled with the enlightened words of wisdom given by these prophets. 80 And in this way Satan was able to subvert the plan of God and put in place his own plan, which plan hath caused exceedingly misery and pain among the children of men. --------------- 37 Behold, when the Lord cometh in his glory, he shall uncover all things and show unto the children of men that which he hath done for their salvation. 38 And when the Lord shall present unto the world the records of my people, then shall ye know that the record of my father is true; and ye shall also know that this record which I shall seal up is true. 39 And because of the things which are written herein, many of you, who have mocked these things, shall weep and wail and gnash your teeth because of that which ye would not accept when it was given unto you in plainness. ♥️♥️♥️

Buddhism vs vipassana, self realization. Don't think other side. First try to take 10 days vipassana course, then you'll realize 100% without any confusion.

WRONG! EVERY PART OF BUDDHISM IS NOT A RELIGION. ONLY UNINFORMED PEOPLE CALL IT A RELIGION. THE ENLIGHTEN ONE WHO STARTED BUDDHISM SAID, "BUDDHISM IS NOT A RELIGION. IT IS A PATH TO FIND INNER PEACE AND LIVE IN HARMONY." Next do more real studying before you post misinformation to others. Go to a real temple and ask Questions. They will tell the truth.

I happened to be the same, I actually got to free myself and clear my mind from it (mindfulness and meditation) but I think mindfulness and meditation isn't only a part of Buddhism, because I actually have been to a church meditation before.

Yeah, it's not exclusively Buddhist you're right, it's used by Taoists, Sufis, and Secular people. But I didn't know church meditation was a concept. Most churches I know of despise it with a passion.

Alexander, you might have been to a Church Meditation Event, but the Origins of Meditation really go back to BC Era India, with the Hindus, Buddhists, Jains etc being the Pioneers of it. Buddha, in particular, is probably the one that came up with the Unique Idea of 'Vipassana' or 'Insight Meditation' ...

I tried Meditation but it didn't work so I am doing Pranayamas. According to sage Patanjali Pranayama prepares the mind for Meditation.

@@DipayanPyne94 Buddha didn't invent Vipassana, he rediscovered it.

@Greg LeJacques “another year and you’ll see its flaws” flaws are forms of suffering, yet flaws like our teacher teach lessons that come form actions of one’s self. “Change is a constant regardless of your helplessness in life” helplessness is lead by the path of attachment.

@Greg LeJacques you really do have a talent to twist something what someone said to make yourself look right huh? Also you do know that some Christians also follow some Buddhist teachings if they want to right? Buddhism honesty isn't a religion but something like a philosophy of life. Also the one who said to kill Lord Buddha was not a Buddhist. Yes he was a monk but not one that followed Buddhism. There are many things I can tell but because english isn't really my first language it's not easy for my to translate my thoughts to english because I don't know the specific words needed to convey my thoughts using the appropriate english words

There exists a fine line between being compassionate & selling emotions for money.😏

It's suffering joyfully

Who was Gautama Buddha? The man known as Gautama Buddha, or simply “Buddha,” was born as Siddhartha Gautama around the 6th century BC. Much of what we know of Buddha is passed down from legends and oral traditions. There are no written works mentioning him until several centuries after his death. According to mainstream accounts, he was born to an aristocratic family who sheltered him from worldly suffering. Despite their efforts, he learned of pain and misery, became discouraged, and gave up his wealth in order to become a religious ascetic. Eventually, Gautama Buddha settled on an approach avoiding the extremes of gluttony and self-denial. His teachings form the basis of the religion known today as Buddhism. Historical information about Buddha is difficult to find. The earliest written texts detailing his life and teachings are dated nearly 500 years after his death. However, he is referenced indirectly in other texts, and his teachings are mentioned by others well before this. Despite the scarcity of information, scholars are confident that Gautama Buddha was an historical person and that the commonly held outline of his life is accurate. Particular details about him, including finer details of his philosophy, are impossible to know with any certainty. Not surprisingly, biographical details of Buddha’s life tend toward the fantastic, including his possessing various supernatural powers. Siddhartha Gautama’s family was wealthy and powerful. Various biographies describe him as athletic, beautiful, and well trained as a warrior. His parents attempted to shelter him from knowledge of pain and suffering. They also kept him from religious teachings, which in that time and place were a blend of local superstitions and various interpretations of Hinduism. As a result, Buddha was nearly thirty years old before first experiencing sickness or death. Against his parents’ wishes, he ventured outside the palace walls and discovered dead bodies, elderly people, and sick people. In response, he ran away from his family and became an ascetic, living as a beggar and owning no property. During these early years, Gautama experimented with various spiritual disciplines but rejected all of them. Buddha eventually attempted to live without even eating, an experiment that nearly killed him. This experience convinced him that neither greed nor austerity were the keys to happiness. He determined meditation to be the only way to determine truth. So, he sat under a tree and resolved to stay there until he had discovered ultimate truth. Nearly fifty days later, Siddhartha Gautama is said to have attained Enlightenment, or a state of perfect spiritual awareness. From this point on, he was known as “Buddha” or “The Enlightened One.” For the rest of his life, Buddha lived as a wandering teacher and developed a large following. The only teaching definitively tied to Buddha himself is an emphasis on meditation as the “middle way” between hedonism and self-denial. Whether by Buddha himself or by his early followers, Buddhism was founded on concepts such as the Four Noble Truths, the Eightfold Path, and a continuation of certain Hindu beliefs including karma and reincarnation. According to Buddhist teachings, life is suffering, and suffering is primarily caused by desire. The only way to break the cycle of rebirth, per Buddhism, is to shed all desires, follow the Middle Way, and attain the perfect state of emptiness. Once a person is purged of all cravings and repulsions, he or she becomes a Buddha and stops reincarnating. Gautama Buddha died around the age of eighty. Various biographical sources attribute his death to either food poisoning or a bowel obstruction. Despite what well-meaning people may claim, Buddha’s life and teachings are starkly different from those of Jesus Christ. Their backgrounds, morality, and spirituality were drastically different, as were their approaches to life and human advancement. Buddha’s life is known only by texts dated centuries after his life, most of which strongly contradict each other. The written documents we have speaking of Jesus’ life were written within a few years of his crucifixion, were widespread less than a century later, and contain harmonized details. Buddha was born into privilege, struggled to find his way, and eventually spent decades as a spiritual guru. Jesus was born poor (Matthew 8:20), was renowned for lifelong virtue (Hebrews 4:15; 1 Peter 1:19), and taught publicly for only about three years. Buddhism teaches that life is suffering and that one’s only hope is to cease to exist upon attaining emptiness. Christ taught that each person’s life is meaningful (John 14:3; Matthew 5:22) and capable of happiness (John 10:10) and that the ultimate goal of existence is eternity with God (Revelation 21:3-4). Buddhism makes no factual or empirical claims-one either accepts its philosophical approach, or not. Christianity is rooted in history (1 Corinthians 15:3), evidence (Psalm 19:11; Romans 1:2), Scripture (Acts 17:11; John 5:39, 46-47), and prophecy (Luke 18:31; 24:27); and it requires a person to make a decision whether to accept or reject Jesus as Messiah (John 3:17-18). Buddha died a revered sage of his people, at a ripe old age. Jesus was brutally executed (Mark 15:24) at the insistence of His own people (Mark 15:14-15) while just in His early thirties. Most importantly, Buddha never claimed to be divine, and his death is considered the end of his story. Jesus Christ claimed to be God (Matthew 26:63-65), intended to prove it by His miracles (John 20:30-31), and was seen resurrected after His death by His closest friends and family (John 21:14; Acts 1:3).

Buddhism is flexible and withstood the test of time. It also prioritizes logic and compassion at the same time.

I have a few questions about Buddhism: what are the views that Buddhism ascribes about women, apostates, or gay people? Are you allowed to be married in Buddhism? Are there punishments in Buddhism? Will anything excuse killing people or some kind of war? I've read quite a bit about Christianity, Judaism and Islam and I think there are so many problems with them in terms of violence and bigotry towards people. Are there problems like "kill all the infidels wherever you find them" or executing idolaters and false prophets in Buddhism?

@@someperson9999 Hi, I've been a buddhist for about twenty years so may be able to help. Buddhism changes a little from culture to culture but if your just taking the text ascribed to the historical Buddha. Women are view as been able to reach Nirvana just like men. The Buddha set up the first female groups in his life time.. No such thing as a apostate If you want to stop following the buddhist path you just stop. When it comes to sex its's more about how you conduct your self than with whom you do it. Marriage, if you want. Punishments. Well you would get punishments from the state you live in. In your own sangha say if you are a monk and don't follow a teaching or don't keep a precept then someone would take to you. After no change you would have to disrobe. Killing is viewed as unethical. War is to be avoided. An no to any of the rest.

Jesus is the way, the truth and the life.

You are very correct , I m so delighted that you got the right decision, cheers

i am going through the same and i am a catholic not sure if i should be both buddhist and catholic

@@harvey9508 I'm not sure that you can be both. Catholics and buddhists have different beliefs. Catholics accept Jesus as their saviour, believe in heaven and hell, and believe things are perminent. In buddhism there is no personal god. Instead of heaven or hell they believe in reincarnation or nirvana. And they believe that everything is temporary, including death. Their main belief though is that attachment and desire are the roots of all suffering.

@@geonite2072 yes i understand but i have beliefs that are from buddhism and catholic because i believe in reincarnation but i also believe in god so i have a big decision to make

I'm hoping this will help my state of mind to my eupd is out if control at the mo this has given me alot of suffering from past to present. But I need to research the mindfulness state more . This is why I'm turning to buddhism I believe this path is the right path ot choose for myself .

I'm still not sure why some people think Buddhism is not a religion. It's a religion, but the philosophy is beyond ones imagination. 🙂

Buddha never taught is as a religon or philosophy. It is us who go to battle to define Buddhism. In fact there is nothing called Buddhism in the first place, and use the term for our own convenience. Buddhist teachings have elements of religion as much as philosophy. Just mix it up the way you wish, I do not care whether it is philosophy or a religion. Buddha will neither get angry nor give extra credits. He left the teachings (Dhamma) for anyone who wishes to follow.

@@erwinaquinde7211 Yeh. There is a documentary that I've watched, they stated that Jesus gone for dozens of years to study Buddhism. This might explain why he going around like Buddhist monks preaching.

@ condorX2 Do you think Jesus copied teachings of the Buddha. But the Bible is full of hate, fear and violence. There are some bits and pieces of the word love but primarily it is all about either you are with me or not. There is a very clear demand and threat here. If you are not with me then you face the eternal hellfire from me and my father. That is the Bible in a nutshell. Buddha did not teach those, none! Never demanded to believe in anything only to accept through one's own reasoning. Never called anyone a sinner nor had a concept of Satan. How can bondage and sadism be equal to compassion and kindness. Never divided mankind to us or them. Never called himself as divine. Never preached of fairies such as original sin, heaven, hell, eternity, salvation (salvation from what?) Secondly who is Jesus unlike Buddha. Buddha IS a historical figure, but Jesus, who is he? Scholars are still at war with each other. Even if Buddha is not historical it would not make any difference as he is not divine but only his teachings matter and the teachings have historical roots goes back to more than 2,500 years. On the other hand this person Jesus is supposed to divine and all 'his' teachings are based on that basis. Further who wrote these books and Gospels in the Bible. What we have are different to the original and even today some bibles are different, Catholic v Protestant. Some scholars value the Gnostic Bible but it is heresy if anyone accepts it. Gospel of Thomas, Gospel of Philips, where do they belong.

And the reason for which he commanded this of Mohammed, was because those who professed to be followers of Jesus Christ, even the Christians who were already many upon the earth, had corrupted the true gospel of the Father by the name of Jesus Christ. 70 And it came to pass that Mohammed went forth among the people and taught them the gospel of Jesus Christ, or the gospel of Allah, as he had been instructed by the Lord to give unto the people. Gautama or Budha and Rishabha --------------- 66 And they were called Gautama, who was later called Buddha, and Rishabha. 67 And these were both holy prophets who taught the people the plan of the Father, having received their instruction and their callings from the Lord in their own times. --------------- 69 And in the latter days there shall be many religions and divers churches which preach many forms of these religions. But the main religions of the latter days shall be those which are based upon the corrupted teachings of these holy prophets that I have mentioned in this record. 70 Behold, these religions shall be known as the Muslim, and the Hindu, and the Buddhist and the Jew, and the Christian. And from these shall come forth many sects, each teaching many different forms of these religions. 71 And now, these things have been made known unto you that ye might know the mind and the will of the Father concerning all of His children. 78 And it came to pass that when these great prophets of whom I have made mention died, their followers began to corrupt their teachings, and in many ways changing the pure gospel that was given unto them by these prophets. 79 And after they had corrupted their teachings, they began to teach for doctrine the precepts and commandments of men mingled with the enlightened words of wisdom given by these prophets. 80 And in this way Satan was able to subvert the plan of God and put in place his own plan, which plan hath caused exceedingly misery and pain among the children of men. --------------- 37 Behold, when the Lord cometh in his glory, he shall uncover all things and show unto the children of men that which he hath done for their salvation. 38 And when the Lord shall present unto the world the records of my people, then shall ye know that the record of my father is true; and ye shall also know that this record which I shall seal up is true. 39 And because of the things which are written herein, many of you, who have mocked these things, shall weep and wail and gnash your teeth because of that which ye would not accept when it was given unto you in plainness.

@Robert Williamson Buddha's teaching the law of Nature or Universe (Dhamma) to whoever to test anywhere and anytime whether Dhamma is beneficial to you then continue to follow his teaching if not beneficial then discard it. Buddha was a human being, not GOD. He discovered human suffering due to loba (Greed), dosa (Anger), moha (Delusion), and Mana (Conceit). Thus human being continues to recycle in the Dokkha Sansara Those enlightened beings are free of the above major felters and attained Nirvana (Nibban) where there is no suffering and no reborn again.

Thanks for great story ❤

To me this is where Buddhism fails It is ok to get angry, just not let anger rule us It is like drinking - don't become a drunkard, that's all Anger in certain situations is helpful - when you see a young girl being harassed by young goons, it is ok to get angry When you see a child begging for food, it is ok to feel sad we are human beings, not robots But the Buddhist focus is so much one being happy, never unhappy Take 2 Kids - A want high marks or grades - he stays up late, worrying, studying. Is he happy? no Kid B doesn't care - he is snoring away, deep sleep, next day he will take in a movie or go play sports while Kid A is still studying. Is Kid B happy? yes of course So why is it that you implore your kids to be more like A? Please tell me

Thank you so much for express this wisdoms thought.

Exactly! Thank you!

Dear Brother , not Nirwana it is mean Nivana and that mean end of the life cycle of us.

I think Nirvana is not understanding the universe but understanding oneself. Living a virtuous life without hurting others and freeing oneself from the cycle of rebirth so we can't suffer any more. Because even when we are born into this world, we are born crying due to pain (even though we can't remember the pain we went through when we are born). Buddhism is more of a philosophy than a religion.

@@GODiscomingsoonagain You are everywhere hahaha. Get well soon

Thanks you. You are fine and you will get there. Challenges will make you perfect though proper understanding. You are a novice, and I did not take any offence for your errors and omissions. I was amazed how you re-worded perfectly till the second last sentence. But I will leave your second last for further analysis as I do not think any sensible person will ever crave for pain and suffering. Yet no one has to believe in me, and open to clear understanding. Buddhism is not a dogma. My understanding is also not clear, and that is the Buddhist path to purification by oneself, not through beliefs.

You are born in this world, you are a worldly being - to think otherwise is foolish - to say I do not crave these worldly things is to invite death - you do not want anything, nothing is all you will get - what a foolish choice

People can crave pain if they feel it is mixed with pleasure. This is known as masochism.

@ Basically life comes with pain - it's a package deal In the womb as in childhood, we were pure, happy, at peace, protected, sheltered, cared for - but as soon as we come out of the womb, we start to cry because we experience pain for the first time - in fact, that is how we know life has started Heaven is the idea that we can go back to the womb, to our childhood, the past and remain the unborn for eternity Reincarnation then stands for Life, REAL LIFE, Adulthood and the Future It's a choice - God will not stop you from making that choice Does a rock feel pain? of course not - would you want to be one? Does a tree feel pain? Maybe, but rooted in one place, it wouldn't make sense - so again no pain, again, do you want to be one? And as you go up the ladder, from a tree to a bug to an animal and finally us - the pain goes up! We can go higher - more pain - Gandhiji, Mandela, Jesus, your ordinary firefighter, soldier, policeman - all walked TOWARDS pain - not away from it! The closer you get to pain, the closer you get to God! You sir, are going the wrong way You want no part of pain, you won't have to - be happy as a Tree or a rock

@@Shonensarutobisasuke what?

There are various interpretations of Buddhism and preachings of them differ from one another. But the core values of Buddhism common in all of them are explained in this video. If you follow them you're already a Buddhist!

Buddhism does not have the "God" in its teachings. Lord Buddha is only a teacher.

Buddhism technically does not have an deities. Buddha is more of a figurehead or rolemodel in this faith. The good thing about buddhism is that it's really accessible and has things to teach you even if you believe in zero of the spiritual stuff. I think it teaches some genuinely good coping mechanisms to deal with the bad side of the human experience. Which is probably why a lot of buddhism has been baked into so much of modern self-help philosophy.

Buddha is a not god. Buddha is a philosopher , teacher and spiritual leader.

Buddha is not a god. Buddha is someone who realized what the truth is. And who showed us the thuth of the word, everything.

God bless you,do you want to know more about buddism. Link to video kzfaq.info/get/bejne/q-Cll8mCzLuwmac.htmlsi=qxyQ_TRJwUsgtPBO

Yes

Everyone can be Buddhism

@@yemyatthu9659 Every being on this colony is a Buddhist they're just not aware of it, the more you research belief systems on this planet, you will go full circle. "EVERY WISH FULFILLED" E.T.

When you practise the Buddha's teaching you are a Buddhist...

leslie, to be a buddhist you must have understanding and acceptance of a few beliefs like karma, and reincarnation etc and to be official you must go for/take refuge and it must be taken in a formal ceremony...Practitioners do however take refuge without the ceremony and still call themselves buddhist, which correct or incorrect is a point debated often.

@@kyelfletcher9701 No one is aBuddhist, Buddhist is just a term used for those who learn the TARA, The Rimpoche likes and prefers us to call ourselves Students or learners. A Buddhist is someone who has managed to reach some sort of enlightenment or on a path to doing so like monks. But you do NOT necessarily have to believe in Karma or reincarnation, you simply must understand the teachings of the Buddah Sakiamuny and implement them in your daily life. If you wish to follow the path of englightenment then yes you must go through ceremonys etc.. Official like.. But really buddhism the philosophy not religion can be followed and learnt by anyone anywhere. Those who gloat and tell people they are buddhist just for the sake of getting some attention are not buddhists, they believe they are but they are still attached to their emotions like humans do.. All in all i hope you are having a productful day and a happy one.

Buddha teach. Peoples in this world..how to.end suffer. ..this life.and next life....how to be awakened one.....become enlightenment.....its called caused and affects..no1 in this world that.live forever... doesnt matter who you are..even from heavenly to.earth...as well... no matter how.

@@therhythmofmyheart7936 Hi hello do I need any fancy ceremony to be a Buddhist

Then you don't have a life - it is that simple As a Kid did you not aspire to get good marks/grades? And there were kids who didn't care - they didn't have this craving - while those who wanted top marks/grades suffered thru long nights, worries and giving up fun and games those that didn't care got to sleep in late, had zero worries and got to go play or take in a movie So you teach your kids to be more like the latter? Honest answer now

@@ramaraksha01 you are being really racism

Ramaraksha that is the difference between desire and suffering Desire - in the way of reaching your desire , you are youself ( not changing , not hurting others or yourself ) is you can call as craving Suffering - desire in which you are hurting yourself as well as close ones is suffering Its an ultimate cycle You see - you r achieving a goal lets say you are becoming a rich CEO , now during this journey , you are behaving bad with your loved ones , you are neglecting your health Now once you had became a CEO , when you realize what you had lost you will be suffering Suffering from lonliness Suffering from diabetes depression Suffering from any disorder

@@bakbakboy9406 reason why you speak in generalities but never give details or examples Life comes with pain & suffering, it is a package deal - no pain, no life - that is what the Buddha failed to realize Lets take an example - kid A desires top marks or grades - he is up late, studying, worrying suffering Kid B doesnt care - he enjoys being around his family, playing with friends, going out to movies According to you more kids should be like B & not A? Is that what you see in real life?

Ramaraksha PAIN IS A GIFT instead of worrying about it , Learn to embrace it Without pain there is no growth -gautama siddharta and answer of your question is kid C Who is not worrying or enjoying too much Who is keeping balance in things (and my friend this is one of the painfull job) Now tell me according to your example who will suffer more or less Kid A or B Also read the great ashoka story Whoever praises his own religion, due to excessive devotion, and condemns others with the thought "Let me glorify my own religion," only harms his own religion. Therefore contact (between religions) is good. One should listen to and respect the doctrines professed by others. - THE GREAT ASHOKA
