Why Buddha Appeals to Me

by barebonesbuddhism

Buddha appeals to me because he is no-nonense and came by his understanding of reality on his own. He refused to take the thoughts of other people. He refused to listen to others when he could not experience the world the way people said he would if he followed their advice.

I also admire that when he found his reality and his truth and peace that he called the earth witness to it.

Buddha found out for himself;

Believed in his own experience;

And invited others to do the same and not depend on his experience to make up for their own.

I would have been quite happy meeting and talking to Buddha but i would never have worshipped him and he would not have let me.
