A bit too liberal for me

“The Buddha taught us how to transcend suffering, not how to save people from their suffering. When the village woman was mourning the death of her child and sought out the Buddha to resurrect the child, he sent her to collect a handful of mustard seeds before he would bring the child back to life. The only caveat was that she only could accept the mustard seeds from a house where no one had ever died. Of course, she failed and had to learn the hard way that with every birth there is death. This reality of nature seems lost when trying to save the world from suffering. It cannot be done, and is not the Buddha’s way. Instead, through his teachings, we learn to transcend suffering. Liberal democratic ideas of saving the world from suffering may be noble in Domyo’s politics, but it is not Buddhism. Even the Bodhisattva idea of saving all sentient beings is about saving them from the cycle of samsara, not saving them from suffering. Leave the politics aside, and you would have a much better podcast.”

“I am an avid lister to your podcast. I was born into a Buddhist heritage but always took the Dharma for granted. Your podcast helps me immensely understand and practice the Dharma. Thank you!”
