Good summary. Thank you, Taryal!

  • That is sad but true.
  • Most Buddhists (mainly Mahayana and Tibetan) believe that just engaging in rituals (chanting, worshipping the Buddha, etc.) is enough to attain Nibbana
  • I believe most Westerners can grasp Buddha’s teachings if explained methodically and will be able to see the “depth” of Buddha’s teachings. I will try to do that in the new “Meditation – Deeper Aspects” section where I will try to simplify Abhidhamma concepts.
