Western Buddhists are self proclaimed group of intellectuals who have very little knowledge of traditional Buddhism and custom. It is more of a sort of fad which would not last long. In next century there will be some new fad. Very true. To tell you the truth, even some of the so-called "Born Again" Christians are actually people who have little knowledge of traditional Christianity & its customs too. I guess the same thing can be also said about so-called "Western Hindus," such as the Hare Krishnas, etc. Hare Krishnas are idiots. The religion itself has very little to do with traditional Hinduism. The entire Vaishnavite Hindus believe that Krishna was an incarnation of Vishnu but HK believe that Vishnu was incarnation of Krishna. But I don't think they proclaim themselves to be intellectuals. They come across as delusional people rather than people pretending to be intellectuals. |
