Buddha:
Hatred do not ever cease in this world by hating, but by love; this is an eternal truth... Overcome anger by love, Overcome evil by good. overcome the miser by giving, overcome the liar by truth.

Jesus:

Love your enemies, do good to those who hate you, bless those who curse you, pray for those who abuse you. From anyone who takes away your coat do not withhold even your shirt. Give to everyone who begs from you; and if anyone takes away your goods, do not ask for them again.

Buddha:
One is the way to gain, the other is the way to Nirvana, knowing this fact, students of the Buddha should not take pleasure in being honored, but, should practice detachment.

Jesus:

No slave can serve two masters For a slave will either hate one and love the other, or be devoted to one and despise the other. You cannot serve God and wealth.

Buddha:
Just as a mother would protect her only child at the risk of her own life, even so, cultivate a boundless heart towards all beings. Let your thoughts of boundless love pervade the whole world.

Jesus:

This is my commandment, that you love one another as I have loved you. No one has greater love than this, to lay down one's life for one's friends.

Jesus:

Risen, alive and Glorious...Buddha is dead .


Ah , well greg ....just where did Jesus take himself and his risen physical body then ?

Did he fly up into the sky ?

Did he retire up to the north pole ?

Melt again into the morning dew?

Is he hiding under a pew in the church ?

Where is he and this body now then that he "rose" in the soma-body ?

That was Paul's word for it , from the greek "soma":
Message 18753972

You see Greg , the Hindus long before Jesus came along already had prophecies of the coming of the Messiah/Buddha , and God taking human form . It is inherent in their religion that predates yours. You You will also note that Buddha was not one , but one of many ---->called "Buddha" . And they continue to be such today , So there you have an eternal prescence in any age of the living Buddha .

*** And Why does it seem every time you post that "hip hip hurrah" for Jesus , it looks as though you are posting the score to an ice-hockey game , instead of a prayer to your messiah ? To any observer today , this is what Christianity such as yours looks like from the outside , and it fairly well only exists in the provencial areas of America and Canada. And it is very provincial in it's backwards intolerance matched only by fundamental Islam .

Buddha =Infinity

Jesus = simple minds.
