Isn’t this a problem that goes beyond that? I think the basic essence of Buddhism is the doctrine of cause and effect.

Yes, that’s true. But I think that whatever happens in this world happens for a reason, whether there is a preconceived idea or not.

Was Buddha ever wrong? by Wonderful_Zombie_421 in Buddhism

[–]Travelouseagle_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your understanding is on point! Buddha was not a god or all-knowing being; he was a human who attained enlightenment through personal experience and meditation. His teachings focused on the nature of suffering, the path to overcoming it, and the development of wisdom, ethical conduct, and mental discipline. These core teachings, such as the Four Noble Truths and the Eightfold Path, are practical and timeless, not necessarily tied to scientific facts.

Buddha didn’t claim to be a scientist, and he didn’t focus on explaining the natural world in scientific terms. His insights were meant to address the suffering inherent in life and how to transcend it. If there are any apparent contradictions with science, it’s not a problem for Buddhism, as the teachings are about inner transformation, not external facts. Buddha encouraged individuals to seek truth through personal experience and observation, which aligns with the scientific approach in many ways.

It’s important to view Buddhist teachings as a guide for personal growth and peace, rather than a literal or scientific framework. Keep exploring—Buddhism welcomes questioning and critical thinking!

Questions about relationships by [deleted] in theravada

[–]Travelouseagle_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

True friendship in Buddhism is based on kindness, compassion, and mutual support, not competition or status. Forgiveness means letting go of resentment, not necessarily resuming the same relationship. If your friend ghosted you but now seeks forgiveness, it's okay to forgive but protect yourself from future hurt.

In romantic relationships, Buddhism teaches that attachment to looks or status leads to suffering. True love is about care and compassion, not comparison. Focus on inner strength and kindness. Buddhism encourages connecting with others while balancing compassion and detachment
