Dharma

Alan Watts speaks.

Buddhism is a dialogue, not a doctrine--a method, not a religion.

That is the first noble truth of buddhism (existence is suffering).

@AlaskanSky Dude that's the entire point of Theravada Buddhism, there really shouldn't be any new insights because the Buddah, before death, asked his followers to ask any questions if they did not understand anything, so that his teaching, perfected teaching, would be taught correctly, and not misinterpreted or changed. It's a noble truth because of the very fact that it does not change with interpretation but is instead realized in it's original form

Life is endless TORTURE.
