This guy said "in Buddhism all views are wrong views"

This implies to say Buddhism is wrong view because all views are wrong.

[nmpost7]

@viktermore understanding is a concept beyond the realm of words.

[atrabbit]

@viktermore buddhism is a wrong view, the buddha said all my teachings are like a raft to be abandoned at the right time. Buddhism is a raft, it teaches us to abandon all views including buddhism. If we were never taught to abandon views we wouldn't know that we were supposed to abandon those notions. They are teachings that teach us to abandon teachings. The diamond sutra would be something to look into if you are confused about this.

@viktermore I don't think you understood correctly what he said. He indeed said that all views are incorrect but he said more, namely that your 'view' becomes wisdom if you directly observe reality. Wich in other words might be: Your subjective 'view' becomes objective, empirical knowledge.

[blessedyoga]

@viktermore Wrong views in itself is a view, all views are neither good or bad because perception is emptiness in itself because it has no reality that is permanent.

I am fortunate to be a Zen Buddhist whose meditation group follows Thay , (Thich Nhat Hanh) and am able to learn a little at a time about the vast knowledge this Zen Master has to offer.

Thich Nhat Hanh be fooled by communist Vietnam!!!

In 2005 and 2007 Thich Nhat Hanh returned to Vietnam to help the communist regime to improve its bad image for religious oppression. In exchange, the communists promised to allow him to practice religion in Vietnam and establish Bat Nha monastery. But in September 2009, Vietnamese authorities launched a violent crackdown on his followers at the monastery, fearing his popularity among the youth could pose a threat to the communist leadership.

HELP BAT NHA MONASTERY!!!

(Vietnam) Dec 17, 2009

About 380 young monks and nuns who are followers of Buddhist leader Thich Nhat Hanh, have called on the French president, Nicolas Sarkozy, to grant them temporary asylum, after they were forced to flee Bat Nha monastery and repeatedly attacked by vigilantes allegedly hired by the Vietnamese authorities. They say the government regards their leader as a threat to its authority due to his fast-growing popularity among the youth.
