buddhism and confederation: karma, samsara and reincarnation

[loostudent]

confederation did mention somewhere that Jesus mostly dissiminates Love, while Buddha mostly Wisdom.

another approach Q'uo have shared that buddhism is passive/reductive path, while christianity is active/inclusive

buddhism in general is rather tricky, as theravada buddhism don't mention helping others get enlightened, so they  work on themselves. it is mahayana and vajrayana approach to begin this path with ultimate goal to liberate all sentient beings. then again tibetan buddhism use  such a vast array of different meditation techniqs, visualisation, deities etc., that "classic" theravadins don't consider it to be a buddhism.

Actually Jesus mixed love and wisdom. In the end however he decided to follow the incarnational plan on earth which was martyrdom - to show "love to the end".

Christianity also has a more contemplative side ...

There is something fascinating and special in Ra's outline of STO path of spiritual growth. It is not necessary to escape in passiveness or pure solitude (working mainly with the unmanifested self). Meditation/prayer/contemplation is emphasized as the prerequisite but the other self is the primary catalyst. Others are mirrors. The way we treat others is indicating the spiritual fruits. Marriage and family isn't the lesser path - it's the school of love and service. Even Christianity is only lately coming to this. It seems celibacy has been receiving higher honour.

Morover the illusion/Creation is more appreciated in Ra Material than in buddhism. On itself it's not a prison you have to escape from.
