Re: Is this set up good for my Ball Python?
Sorry I had school and everything so I couldn't explain the Buddha. Yes, I am Buddhist and I went to Thailand and became a Buddhist. I speak Chinese, some Thai, Korean, English, German, and a little Japanese.Originally Posted by chetman7
Yes I know what Buddha means, and you should know just for your knowledge that There are giant Buddha statues in China and Thailand and probably in India too, and birds land on them and nature takes its course on them, so I thought about it and if Snakes do what they do then it's nature. Just read more into Buddhism and you'll understand about the part where you should respect nature and Buddha isn't a "GOD". It's a ro-model.
Read this and you'll understand maybe. Are you sure you're buddhist. lol
Buddha is not worshipped as god, deva, nor prophet or messenger of God but a human guru ( teacher) who had gained enlightenment.
Probably one of the few religions in the world that had never fought any war in his name.
A typical misconception tends to link Buddha as the Buddhist counterpart of “God”; however, Buddhism is non-theistic, i.e., in general it does not teach the existence of a supreme creator god (see God in Buddhism) or depend on any supreme being for enlightenment; Buddha is a guide and teacher who points the way.
The commonly accepted definition of the term "God" describes a being that not only rules but actually created the universe (see origin belief). Such ideas and concepts are disputed by Buddha and Buddhists in many Buddhist discourses.
In Buddhism, the supreme origin and creator of the universe is not a god, but Avidya (ignorance). Buddhists try to dispel this darkness through constant practice, wisdom and compassion (known as prajna).
