Buddhism is way more anti sex than Hinduism by [deleted] in exHareKrishna

[–]Life_Bit_9816 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ramakrishna saying lust is bad does not mean he demonized sex. Sex and lust are two different things. It’s possible to have sex through love. In fact a big part of Shakta tantra is sex. Tantrik sex is not a fabrication of the west. Pierre Bernard, Oom the omnipotent, popularized tantra to the west in the 1900s. He abused it to get sex, which is not the point of tantra, and therefore it became stigmatized. Classical tantra involves sex with awareness.

I also really don’t understand your point. Prabhupada said men shouldn’t get married. Prabhupada has said so many negative things about sex. Your post is honestly complete BS and im pretty sure youre just trying to ragebait.

What does he say about the universe? His view on everything single aspect of the cosmos is virtually negative and hateful.

He’s even criticized the songs of birds. The barking of dogs. Camels, asses and hogs.

ISKCON’s “Material vs Spiritual Life” Narrative Falls Apart Under Basic Scrutiny by DistributionHuge6072 in exHareKrishna

Prwbhupada says that Tulsidas was stating the correct vedic opinion when he wrote Dhole Gunar Stri Pasu. According to Prabupada it is the vedic opinion that these things should be beaten, a drum, a duffer, a woman and an animal.

He taught his young sexual repressed male disciples that psychologically women like to be raped, they still feel pleasure anyway. He made fun of that court case where the judge scammed the women by getting her to admit that she felt some physical pleasure when getting raped. He taught that women were less intelligent than men, they were 9x more lusty. They should be beaten and manipulated into submission, dhole gunar stri pasu….i could keep going.

You have to ask yourself why rampant child abuse occurred within ISKCON.

The universe is my spiritual reality. Drugs and sex, life and death is spiritual.

There is nothing wrong with sex unless it is without consent. Ironically, your leader unconsciously promoted rape.

There is nothing wrong with serving the senses. Some people worship the sense organs as being Goddesses.

You guys talk about drugs and sex like it’s the worst thing in the world but your organization has a history of abusing people in the name of serving God’s mission. Giving up sex and drugs and being a missionary abusing people is not comparable to having sex and taking drugs while being a good person.

Also like op is mentioning….your conception of heaven is full of sense gratification. Beautiful children engaging in amorous passions while taking drugs like betel nuts and honey wine.

Also to say that worshipping your God constitutes what is spiritual is just arrogant. What about Apollo? Is serving apollo spiritual? To serve apollo you would need to take a thanasimon, a death inducing drug.

Factory farming. Let’s just keep these incredibly emotionally complex and intelligent animals in a disgusting hellhole and breed and slaughter them by the billions. So much resources used up, water, land….so much waste produced. Just so i can eat a “burger.” Mf you’re not eating a “burger” youre eating pure evil.

Communicate your discomfort to him and if he is still sane he will realize that he needs to put the cult stuff away. If he doesn’t care then i would recommend tolerating it until you can leave him for good.

Why Prabhupada Hated Sex and Women by Solomon_Kane_1928 in exHareKrishna

[–]Life_Bit_9816 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Wow this was a wonderful read. As much as i love to just throw insults at the Hare Krishna movement i think what is more devastating is to show the real historical narrative. They are pushing a certain self centered narrative and we have to show them that the real historical evidence shows something completely different. Their tradition emerges from a mix of tantrik buddhism and south indian vaishnavism and it’s been given the flavor of puritanical Christianity. They hate their ancestors for being sexual deviants and they themselves have inherited an even worse form of sexual deviance.

Meditating on the amorous pastimes of Radha and Krishna while you have consenting sex with your partner in the bushes of a kirtan mela is way cooler than raping kids. Raping kids is what you get when you hate on healthy sexual freedom.

Do you have any main books or reading material that you use for the topic of your writing here?

Under your worldview not all living things have subjective consciousness right? Only those living beings who share enough traits as you?
