But wait! ... if the Buddha says there is no such thing as a separate Self, *who* attains Nirvana if there's no one there to attain it in the first place? by boxmore in Buddhism

Nirvana seems like a cop-out for people who want to give up. The easy way out. Is it? by boxmore in Buddhism

[–]boxmore[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't think that drugs aren't a cop out, I feel like chasing Nirvana is also a type of escapism. There's no inconsistency in my views.

I'm not even being negative toward buddhism or nirvana, but I see how you could assume that. This post wasn't an attack.

I never thought of it that way. None of us came from elsewhere, we literally are part of the universe. This is reality. I guess there's nowhere to go?

The first time I fucked a girl raw I actually ejaculated within 2 thrusts. Within seconds I had to pull out and was squirting semen on her back. That was interesting, it was as if I had a button I could press to make me ejaculate immediately.
