What school of Buddhism ,
and how should I adhere ?
Now, Which meditation technique should I follow? Rituals ?
Everyone says they are the true followers of Buddha.
People who practice Goenka Vipassana claim to be practicing actual Buddhist meditation that dates back 2500 years, which is not true .
Body sensation meditation was invented by Ledi Saydaw .(Birth of insight meditation by Erik Braun ) .
Infact Goenka Vipassana is more like a cult .
Ceylon monks claim they are original followers .The same with South asian Buddhists .
The teachings of the Buddha are lost in time . 2500 years is a very long period. Thervada sect has lots of distortions .
The teachings of Buddha go beyond what is recorded in Pali. Many scrolls were burnt during invasion on Nalanda , Thanks to khilji .There is a lots of speculation .
There is no doubt what Buddha's taught is far more superior to any other religion or God .
What most of Buddhist, dalits Buddhist ,Neo Buddhist are doing is mere ceremonial .Spirituality element is missing .
Unless we crack what Buddha taught and the meditation method , every attempt will create another Cult .
