When a person supports his parents,
And respects the family elders;
When his speech is gentle and courteous,
And he refrains from divisive words;When he strives to remove meanness,
Is truthful, and vanquishes anger,
The Tavatimsa devas call him
Truly a superior person.
~SN11.11 -
"Our original nature is...void, omnipresent, silent, pure; it is glorious and mysterious peaceful joy – and that is all. Enter deeply into it by awakening yourself."

En el budismo zen, el humor está vinculado a la libertad para no encorsetarse con las normas. El monje Sengai Gibon (1750-1837) recibió tantas peticiones de ilustraciones y caligrafía que escribió: “¡Qué deplorable! ¿Es mi lugar de reclusión una letrina? Toda visita que recibo trae trozos de papel y los deja aquí". Esta ilustración, defecando en la nieve con la inscripción "parece nadie viene aquí", se relaciona con ello. 🏛️Colección Eisei Bunko #budismo #buddhism

As I understand, the muni (silent sage) ideal of having no views ultimately means having no perceptions: not distinguishing between objects, or between subjects and objects, just experiencing raw sensation. Going from there to objectless awareness means also closing the 'sense doors', like consciously falling asleep.

The brick structures at Sāvatthī were mostly built during the Mauryan, Kushan, and Guptan periods. So, Buddha never actually set foot in the Mulagandhakuti, which is just a shrine. But, he did probably stay in a mud/thatch/wood hut near there during rains retreats.

Dogmas are always problematic for me, and I tend to see religion as mostly a set of dogmas.
I've always seen faith and religion as two separate things. Faith is personal ...

Faith and religion
I've always seen faith and religion as two separate things. Faith is personal conviction, religion is someone else's convictions that are forced upon you.
If you haven't seen the (Dutch) film Simon, you should. Other than being a really, really good film, it also has the main character give us this wisdom:Every form of organized religion is wrong.
I agree. Faith is fine, religion is (mostly) not. Let everybody think for themselves: a "moral compass" should be in your head, not in random ancient texts.
But if the gist of your holy scripture is to be nice to each other, to help those in need and to see all human beings as equal, several serious questions and doubts should pop up in your mind if an openly racist misogynist with a long list of convictions for crimes that also go against the Ten Commandments, says he is a true christian. Is he? And if so, are you?
What would Jesus do?
Again, I'm an atheist, but I have absolutely no problem with telling people that face a moral question, to ask themselves "what would Jesus do?"
For me, Jesus wasn't an immortal deity who could walk on water, but simply someone who pointed out the same societal problems we see today: inequality, poverty, greed, abuse of power, hypocrisy... He wasn't the first or the last to do that either.
Creeds on greed
Jesus was crystal clear about greed; this article, "What did Jesus say about greed?", explains it exactly like I see it.
That's pretty much the same as what Buddha teaches us, only the goal to reach is not a god or heaven, but enlightenment.
I like to see myself as a socialist, a concept that is based on the same ideas as those preached by Jesus and Buddha: help each other, and share. Capitalism is the opposite of that: grab what you can.
A true Christian can never also be a capitalist, at least not without an unhealthy dose of hypocrisy.

After developing the ability to watch thoughts and feelings from a mental distance, an even greater freedom is to detach from the subjective feeling of a watcher (which is also impermanent). The result is ungrounded experience, where there is knowing but no knower.

El Buda Dorado en el templo Wat Traimit tiene 5,5 toneladas de oro en capas de 1-1,5 cm. Construido entre los siglos XIII-XIV, fue cubierto de estuco y vidrio coloreado desde el siglo XVIII, posiblemente para evitar atraer la atención de los invasores birmanos. Su aspecto original se desveló en un traslado a mediados del siglo XX, cuando la estatua se cayó al suelo. 📷กสิณธร ราชโอรส (Kasindhorn, el hijo del rey) #budismo #buddhism

In early Buddhism, the rainy season/retreat (vassa), which began after the last full moon, was the only time monks/nuns lived indoors, and 'indoors' meant temporary wooden, thatch-roofed huts setup in pleasure gardens donated by wealthy laypeople, not stone viharas. They were expected to wander the rest of the year.
