tell it to one of the dozens of christfag threads we've been spammed with every day ever since the boomers showed up

plz show bobs and Vajrayana.

you should try Vageeninveda

Can you recommend a book, or even better a podcast, that would be a good introduction for someone with very little knowledge on the subject?

Isn't Mahayana more widespread that Theravada. Masses mostly practice pure land which is Mahayana school, while Theravada is the small vehicle for monks. Also, Vajrayana needs a guru, its utmost importance, and you have to find some serious teacher who doesn't just collect money from people and abuse them in return. You can seriously cause harm for yourself with Vajrayana if you are careless, same with other paths but Vajrayana is specially volatile path. OP should mostly see is there a sangha nearby, but he won't, its like most religious larpers here, pagans or christians, they adopt a identity but not the practice.

You know why his arm is missing? It didn’t just break off he was making the cross like the Jesus paintings and statues. There are no complete standing “Buddha” statues for this reason.

Also Gautama Buddha is Gaumata Bardya. A son of Cyrus the Great and not an imposter as the usurper Darius claimed. Darius didn’t kill him, he self-exiled to the East.

Theravada, Mahayana is Chink LARP and Vajrayana is barely even Buddhism, it's local Himalayan paganism.
