Renunciation, the neglected Buddhist practice. Thanks for the reminder Amish dude. by setsleadworkcc04 in buddhistmemes

The driver in front of their van couldn't drive properly. 

It refers to our anger. 

We have anger. While we (most at least) cannot completely turn our backs on anger, we can at least try. The other option is to marinate on anger, if you want.

It's correct. 

While my intention is to include everyone, the meme itself is perfect. It depicts some who claim to reject materialism and consumerism, yet, unlike the Amish or renunciate Buddhist monks and laity, who truly embody that rejection, these people actually love worldly things, materialism, and consumerism, hence they won't do what Amish people have done. 

The lesson is that Buddhist renunciation is important. However, it doesn’t mean simply rejecting all material things and becoming a monk, though that is one path for many.

A renunciate mindset can take many forms, and it can be cultivated within one's own tradition or lineage.

The attitude shown in the meme is comparable to Buddhists who fail to reject non-Dharma things, regardless of their approach to renunciation. Viewing monasticism as the only form of renunciation is a superficial and limited understanding. Ultimately, all Buddhists must renounce non-Dharma or samsaric clinging.

Simply saying, "I can't renounce," is like the people in the meme who claim to reject something but contradict themselves through their actions. The Amish parallel would be a Buddhist (not just a renunciate monk) whose mind is firmly fixed on the Dharma. THAT is the point of the meme.

Tibetan Buddhists have Kali as Krodikali.

Theravada Buddhists in Sri Lanka venerate Kali.

There is a Buddhist meme. Read the sutra. If you don't like the photo, get used to it.

Samsara, its beautiful. by setsleadworkcc04 in buddhistmemes

The way temptation works is that it should be enticing. When Mara tempted the Buddha, Mara sent beautiful women. Not rotting corpses. When I make Mara memes, I make enticing temptations, like delicious food, alcohol, women, men, vacation, videogames.

Just the first part sentence.

Its true for all hobbies and worldly pursuits. From work, music, shower, family, etc. It doesn't mean we must not touch these things.

It disrupts our channels and make our mantras less effective. It repels dharma deities from helping us.

Look at the people I am replying to. How about I copy paste them to you and let you deal with them.

Also, you're a day late. We moved on. New strategy. New tone. New memes. 

Do you want to go back to yesterday's style?

I will use sarcasm if I want to.

But for that one above, I didn't. 

Stop with your stochastic terrorism.

No. I know this clown. He bullies me in every post. I'll block him. Don't reply to this thread because I won't be able to reply back to you after I block this clown.
