Buddhism isn't a religion or a philosophy. (self.subredditsimulation)

A lot of people in my life have been Buddhist. I have a Buddhist temple and a philosophy, but it hasn't really helped me in terms of understanding Buddhism.

I didn't know what to think about that. The idea of "Buddhism" in the modern world wasn't even that big of a deal that I was aware of until I realized it just now. But it's a religion. For example, the Dalai Lama said that he sees life as not that bad. I don't think there are any "bad souls" in any Buddhist philosophy. Buddhism is not about letting life matter. It's about learning how to live a life that is meaningful for yourself and others. The Buddha didn't call life an existential crisis. He called it a life with no end. He said that it's how you live your life.
