Entire books, even libraries, have been written about Buddhism, and that’s fine. However, I think most of Buddhism can be reduced to the following saying:
And here you see the difference in the Western and Asian faiths. Buddhists, as a rule, usually aren’t obsessed with going around and spreading their faith by force, or by conquering everyone in sight… But rather by cultivating a sense of harmony and inner peace that for 2,500 years, has attracted followers.
Of course it is not QUITE that simple. In different ways, though, Christianity and Buddhism, are similar in that they reduce the cause of human suffering as basically being too attached to one’s Ego, or one’s exaggerated sense of self… even though behind everything there may be just one vast Consciousness, or Cosmic Intelligence.
Hello,hope y'all doin good, i came to Quora to share my strange story , a very weird one , a story when luck smiled at me ,maybe u will enjoy it , let's begin,have fun...
A year ago ,I was a real porn addicted(btw I was 18) ,but never had sex before, I don't have a gf I didn't try to find one even ,always thinking to go to find a sex worker but then I just don't , everyday watching different bodies getting fucked and everyday enjoying.
One day, I was watching porn, a big ass lady with big boobs ,just after seeing her the image of my female cousin poped in my mind, (let's introduce her : she's 35 years old , very big ass , nice boobs ,not very big but nice,always wearing tight clothes , she's divorced ) and I thought of me fucking her ,I never had sexual desires for her but now I do days went by and when I met her I was so horny ,I couldn't stay with the family cz my penis was clearly erected , I realized this is my first time I get horny for one of my family ,it not illegal in my country.well to make a long story short( if u want details just text me I will tell u 😊),I decided to give her signs that I want to fuck her,finally I decided to have sex and with my cousin , I thought it is the best beggining for me, i started touching her when I came across her in a narrow place , make her feel my hard cock when we hug , I thought it will hard and I will be ashamed but no , I felt nothing and she said nothing , probably she thought it was by mistake,anyways, I decided then to talk with her about sex, waited for her to be alone in a room and talk with her, I confessed everything about me watching porn and addicted..etc,she said it's normal and u are growing up and u must have sex,well at that time I was like whaaat????? Well I didn't control myself and asked her for sex ( horny like I Ve never been before) she said that she will think Abt it ,2 weeka went by then she called me ,telling that she reserved a room in a hotel and we meet tonight ,we met,and bruuhh, sex is great , I mean, I had to find a pirstitue ,what I was waiting for to have such a feeling ????, I will never forget that night, I started kissing her she was kissing hard ,she misses sex so bad , she sucked my dick and swallowed my semen ,I felt I'm in a dream , then when fucked ,her ass was very big and the anus was open ,didn't struggle to get my hard cock inside it , she was obviously missing sex , she was shouting ,fuck me yh fuck me , I go fast after every word until I cum , we did that 3 times , then we went to her pussy , using condoms I fucked her so hard the moans were higher , everything was perfect ,in the end I asked her to lick her body , licked pussy ,ass, boobs,then she sucked my cock until we sleeped ,all I know that she was dirty ,well before even having sex with her I knew she is an open minded woman , and a woman that looks that she donesnt know anything , but she knows everything, but never expected having sex with her ,well she was horny and that helped...but no one of us regretted that sex ever..
We still have sex from time to time ,and I started having sex with sex workers , joining threesomes..etc
If u want pics of her text me.
Rule 2. Everything is the small stuff.
Rule 1. Don’t sweat the small stuff, and
The Ego, to a Buddhist, is above all the illusion of an individual that he or she is at the center of the universe, and everything else is less important. One of the main goals of Buddhism is for the Ego (or illusion of separateness) to gradually fade way.

But the the difference with some religions is: it is not quite a matter of perfection for perfection’s sake, but rather than if you are truly freed from materialism and selfishness, you simply won’t feel the need to hurt, dominate, or abuse other souls. Why would a truly evolved soul need to do things like that? And this state of awareness (Enlightenment) can be approached through a moderate, benevolent lifestyle, along with meditation and — above all — the acquisition of patience and understanding.
Buddhists tend to think that this comes down to a transcendent awareness that can never be reduced to words alone. But it says that by practicing a few simple ideas, known as the Eightfold Path, one can approach this Cosmic Awareness over time.
Yes, that will strike many as a gross over-simplification. But it isn’t really. So much of what Christ taught, and what Buddha taught, can *ALMOST* be reduced to something like, “Try to be a better person.” And along with that, the learning of patience and moderation in all things.

What so many of the world’s great “Faiths” attempt to do is to free the soul from obsessive identification with the Ego’s point of view, and free up an awareness of Cosmic Perspective.
