There are several key ingredients for becoming a fully awakened Buddhist. Buddhism is more than just devotion to trendy paintings of Buddha and Buddha memes on social media. While those are the backbones of Buddhism, there's also soulful practices like sociopathic level nonattachment and narcissistic level loving kindness that you need to master. I fully equip you with this video.

as a practicing buddhist I will smile on this because Im above being offended and I'll send this to other buddhists that I think are not practicing correctly in hope they react offended so I can show them they're not practicing correctly

[BethanyKay]

Love it! Your sarcasm is so intense it's almost not sarcastic.

Western Buddhist monk here, as always wonderful satire on the hypocrisy often seen in western spiritualism. I think if anyone is offended it is because of the things "lost in translation" between cultures. They may think this is some sort of an attack on Buddhism, but I can clearly see the satirical and comedic value, because I'm so super ultra spiritual that I have a bald head and robes ;).

“The IRS, too, shall pass.”

Well, that’s a relief.

"Impermanence is a permanent fixture in Buddhism"

Gotta admit. I lol'd at that...

[VotePaineJefferson]

I used to be an awakened mind. Then I started watching your videos and I realized you were much more awakened than me. Thank you for awakening me even more so than before, my friend.

In my first semester of college, I wrote a paper making that exact point about Buddhist unattachment and suffering. My professor, who was a Buddhist, loved the paper and gave me a 96% on it.

As someone who has been practicing Buddhism for many years, I thought this was hilarious!

[seanstrickland]

"the IRS will pass" i tried that approach and it didnt work... lol

I ordered a bag from your shop. I'm remaining unattached to the fact that shipping is $11.

Just to put this out there, as a person who was raised as a buddhist under the Nichirin Diashonen discipline, this video is not offensive in the least bit. Honestly if any "buddhist" finds this offensive theyre not a true buddhist. Most disciplines of buddhism teaches acceptance not tolerance. Everything should be taken with a light heart and if you get offended you've already let your pride overwhelm you.

Plus non-attachment is more so understanding that everything changes so love everything you have around you whole heartedly until it passes and then dont be upset when it changes or leaves. Really non-attachment means dont be greedy.

"You can fearfully avoid the hurt that comes with loss and rejection" - You took that right out of the Tao... Lao Tzu would be so proud.

As an Asian who practice's Buddhism, I should be offended, but as I stated before I am a Buddhist and I will not let such petty things mess with my Chakra or path to enlightenment so I am not offended, therefore better than you.

May you find peace in Buddha.

“the IRS, too, shall pass.” i couldn’t help but laugh extremely loudly. i think what makes this even funnier is that i’m doing accounting work and it just killed me.

I love the way this guy makes fun of this new age thing and at the same time shows the problems and hypocrisy with it.

When we mentioned vipassana, I was just thinking "god the first four days were awful".
