Hi Johnny_Lim,
Do you really belief extinction is a nobel goal?
I belief buddha-dhamma is something positive, but i cannot see extinction, to vanish like a extinguished flame at parinibbana, is something positive.
i find this very depressing, no gain, also very ungrateful.
Suffering can be bad, oke, people can committ suicide, but even that feels better then conciously working on your own extinction and pretending to do this is a nobel goal. In my mind it feels very dark-minded. Not positive at all. It even feels immoral to act this way.
Is this really buddha-dhamma?
I also cannot understand that Lal sees it as nobel goal to extinguish like a flame.
