| The Ghost of RubangB said: That's an oversimplification of both hands, and when you word it like that, almost everybody will say left, because conformity sounds bad and denial of pleasure sounds bad. You kinda left out that the left hand path is supposed to imply SATAN and the right hand path is supposed to imply JESUS. You either follow Jesus or yourself, and when you follow yourself, you do Satan's work. I love how neither of these relate to the Buddhist concept of the Middle Path. Thinking of all 3 at once is hilarious, and makes it sound like Buddha is the referee between Jesus and Satan, or he's the Catwoman between Batman and the Joker. |
Confucius says:
"If I am walking with two other men, each of them will serve as my teacher. I will pick out the good points of the one and imitate them, and the bad points of the other and correct them in myself."
Buddha says:
"In the sky, there is no distinction of east and west; people create distinctions out of their own minds and then believe them to be true."
