Thank you! Gautam Buddha emphasized self-awareness, inner peace, and understanding the nature of suffering. Instead of focusing on a creator god, he taught that enlightenment comes from within through self-realization. I'm glad you found the video informative! 🙏😊
In a Buddhist context, the idea of gods as influencers can be understood differently. In Buddhism, gods (or devas) are part of samsara, the cycle of birth and rebirth, just like humans. They may have influence over certain realms, but they too are subject to impermanence, suffering, and death. Praying to gods can bring temporary benefits, like prosperity or protection, but it won't lead to ultimate liberation from suffering (nirvana). The Buddha taught that true liberation comes from realizing the impermanent nature of all things, developing wisdom, and following the path of mindfulness and ethical conduct. Instead of seeking favor from gods, the focus is on going beyond attachment to any worldly or heavenly power, achieving enlightenment through inner transformation. Therefore, one can respect the role of gods but strive to rise beyond their influence by practicing self-awareness and compassion, realizing the truth of non-attachment. This way, a practitioner can go beyond samsara and achieve the ultimate freedom of nirvana.
From a Buddhist perspective, the question of God is seen as not directly relevant to the path of liberation. While it's true that when asked about God, the Buddha often remained silent or redirected the conversation, this wasn’t because of ignorance but because his focus was on practical solutions to suffering rather than metaphysical speculation. In reply to the statement "When asked about God, Buddha replied that he didn't know," a Buddhist might respond: "The Buddha's silence or redirection when asked about God reflects his emphasis on addressing the root causes of suffering (dukkha) and guiding people towards liberation through the Eightfold Path. For the Buddha, questions about the existence of God or the universe’s origin were seen as distractions from the primary goal of overcoming suffering. Rather than focusing on speculative metaphysical debates, he encouraged people to focus on their own conduct, thoughts, and wisdom to achieve inner peace and enlightenment. Whether or not there is a God, the Buddha taught that personal transformation and understanding are what truly matter on the path to liberation.
Buddha's teachings primarily focus on the nature of suffering, compassion, mindfulness, and the path to enlightenment. His approach does not center around worshipping deities or external gods but emphasizes an inward journey to understand one's own mind, detach from desires, and develop compassion and wisdom. Buddha encouraged self-reliance on the path to liberation, focusing on inner transformation rather than devotion to an external creator or divine being. In Buddhist philosophy, the concept of divinity is seen in a broader, more experiential context. Buddha’s teachings guide practitioners to realize the "divine" qualities within themselves, such as compassion, wisdom, and equanimity. This emphasis on personal spiritual awakening offers a path that respects divine qualities without necessarily identifying with a specific creator figure like the demiurge or external god. Instead, enlightenment itself, characterized by deep peace, understanding, and self-mastery, is considered the highest state one can attain.
Every thing is correct except one thing that buddha is born into a hindu religion or society is absolutely false because Buddha spoke about other Buddhas who lived before him and there is no mention of these God for 900 yrs after buddha❤
Siddhartha Gautama, who became known as the Buddha, was born into a society steeped in the spiritual and religious traditions of ancient India. His family was part of the Shakya clan, and the religious and cultural practices in his region were heavily influenced by the Vedic traditions, which are often considered early foundations of what evolved into Hinduism. However, at the time, there wasn’t a single, unified "Hindu" religion as we understand it today. Buddha’s teachings diverged from the dominant Vedic or Brahmanical practices of his era. He questioned rituals, the caste system, and certain metaphysical views of his time. Instead, he emphasized a path to enlightenment based on self-inquiry, ethical behavior, and meditation, distinct from Vedic rituals and worship. In doing so, he established a spiritual path that differed significantly from the Brahmanical orthodoxy, forming the foundation of Buddhism as a separate tradition. So, while Buddha was born into a Vedic-influenced society, he created a unique spiritual path that stood apart from the religious practices that later became known as Hinduism. The origins of Buddha’s teachings indeed suggest that he offered a new spiritual perspective that diverged significantly from the Vedic traditions dominant in his time. While it’s historically accurate that Siddhartha Gautama was born into a society where Vedic beliefs were prominent, Buddhism itself introduced unique teachings on suffering, compassion, and enlightenment, which marked a shift from the religious practices and cosmology of that era. Buddha did mention past Buddhas in his teachings, emphasizing that enlightenment is a potential that has been realized by many before him. His focus was on a practical path to liberation through mindfulness, ethical conduct, and wisdom, rather than worshipping gods or engaging with divine creation stories. His teachings paved a distinct path of spiritual development that attracted followers for centuries and established a self-reliant and introspective spiritual tradition. Your point aligns well with how Buddhism offers a timeless, unique path to self-realization that doesn’t depend on traditional notions of a single creator or supreme deity.

Gods are the influencers....thus you can pray to them and rise in this world or ignore them and go beyond.
