[MD] belief

[118]

Yeah, sounds like Sartre, that Bufoon!  He can have his meaningless universe, it sure has no Quality. 

 I did not know you we're an existentialist.  In many ways Buddhism is existentialist, except it trends towards determinism if one follows the literature.  Of course Buddha was not a determinist, he believed the Self could reach nirvana.  This made him an anti-existentialist as well.  Too bad nobody understands his teachings here in the West.  He spoke of Quality, plain and simple.

He did not believe in Reality.

Cheers,


Mark
