The Woe of Absolute Truth When Confronting the Will of Human Greed - Lemmy.World
Chapter I: Genesis and the Core Perspective of This Treatise A recent
observation in a religious forum cited a wise individual who claimed that the
development of organized religion holds a “Net Negative Value” for human
civilization. While this statement immediately drew fire from devotees, an
examination through the “Absolute Facts of the Cosmic View” reveals that this
assertion exposes the most extensive and hidden logical fraud in human history.
The arguments presented in this paper are not aimed at any individual’s faith
preference but are grounded in the “Absolute Singularity of Law.” The Absolute
Fact (Dhamma/Tao) of the cosmos is pure and immutable. Whether it is the rigor
of mathematics, the regularity of physics, or the cause-and-effect principle
established by the Original Dhamma, all are essentially the same unchangeable
Law. All conflicts and contradictions originate solely from the changeable
executors (individual humans and the institutions they form) who systematically
tamper with the Law to serve selfish interests. When we assert that religion
constitutes a “Net Negative Value,” the logical foundation is this:
Institutionalized religion does not “transmit knowledge”; it “consumes the Law.”
It transforms what was originally a transparent and educational “school model”
into an opaque and predatory “fraud syndicate model.” This transformation
process not only fails to increase humanity’s understanding of Truth but, by
generating superstition and fear, effects a large-scale negative depletion of
society’s wealth, rationality, and morality. Chapter II: The Ontological
Conflict Between Law (Dhamma/Tao) and Institution (Religion) (I) The Essence of
Scholarly Spirit and Knowledge Transmission True Law is fundamentally knowledge,
and its method of dissemination must be “open, transparent, and verifiable.”
When Law Transmitters (such as the Buddha or Lao Tzu) were alive, the groups
they presided over were essentially “educational institutions.” For instance,
the Buddha’s Sangha was built upon minimal material needs and strict adherence
to cause-and-effect practice, aiming for the individual to achieve cognitive
liberation through “self-reliant practice.” In this model, there was only the
teaching and receiving of knowledge between the mentor and the student, with
absolutely no authority worship or financial transactions. This is the “School
Minimalist” model established by the Law Transmitters. (II) The “Entropy
Increase” and Corrosion of Religious Institutions However, upon the passing of
the Law Transmitter, if the successors are not individuals of equal attainment,
the organization they lead inevitably falls into the “Humanity Entropy Increase”
predicted by the “Knowledge Thermodynamics.” This entropic force includes human
greed, collective ignorance, and power manipulation. For the sake of survival,
power expansion, and securing donations, these individuals must inevitably
“downscale” and “modify” the original Law. This corruption mechanism typically
manifests as transforming “knowledge requiring practice” into “miracles
requiring belief.” They establish vast administrative structures and opulent
buildings, which demand huge financial upkeep. To acquire this money, they must
invent fallacies that violate the Law of Cause and Effect, such as “chanting the
name can lead to Buddhahood,” “donations can eradicate calamities,” or “burning
paper money can save ancestors.” This behavior transforms the originally
positive transmission of knowledge into a “malicious liability” against the Law,
which consequently generates the “Net Negative Value” discussed in the forum.
Chapter III: The Absurdity of Deification and the Logic-Ethical Deadlock of the
“Ordinary Being Bodhisattva” (I) Mud Bodhisattvas Crossing the River: The
Pretense of Compassion Among the many modified doctrines (such as Mahayana
Buddhism, Tibetan Lamaism, etc.), the most absurd is the deified worship of the
“Bodhisattva.” Based on the strict definition of the state of enlightenment in
the Original Dhamma, we arrive at the inevitable conclusion: “A Bodhisattva is,
in fact, an ordinary being subject to the cycle of birth and death (Samsara)
until they attain Buddhahood.” An individual who has not attained Buddhahood
remains objectively subject to the force of Kamma (Karma), susceptible to
rebirth in the animal realm or the ghost realm. This state of being a Samsaric
ordinary being logically disqualifies them from granting others “Absolute
Salvation” . The Chinese saying, “A mud Bodhisattva crossing the river can
barely save itself,” precisely points out this contradiction. (II) The
“Knowledge Paradox” and “Ethical Violation” of the Pig/Dog Bodhisattva The
deification of the “Bodhisattva” inevitably leads to the logical deadlock of the
“capability vacuum within the cycle of Samsara.” If a “Bodhisattva” is reborn as
a pig or a dog due to the force of Kamma, the constraints of its consciousness
structure and physical form render it incapable of transmitting any advanced,
abstract Law. Relying on an animal with stripped cognitive capacity for
“salvation” is a “Knowledge Paradox” which utterly exposes the absurdity of the
“Bodhisattva Way” myth. Furthermore, the Bodhisattva Way’s goal to “save all
sentient beings” necessitates, as its premise, the abolition of sentient beings’
freedom to “choose self-delusion.” The suffering of sentient beings stems from
their own Kamma, and only self-practice can purify Kamma. If a Bodhisattva
forcibly intervenes and “saves” them, it constitutes an absolute infringement
upon that being’s “freedom to bear the consequences of their actions,” thereby
constituting a severe obstruction of the “Law of Freedom” in ethics. (III) The
Buddha’s Actions and the Necessity of Law Preservation True Compassion (Pāḷi:
Karuṇā) must be governed by Wisdom (Pāḷi: Paññā). Compassion that lacks
discernment and adherence to the Law is essentially foolishness. When confronted
with Devadatta, who attempted to split the Sangha and corrupt the precepts, the
Buddha ultimately administered a “formal condemnation and exclusion” according
to the rules of the Pāḷi Vinaya (Great Discipline). This action proves that any
sentimentality must be discarded in the face of maintaining the purity of the
“Absolute Law.” The “unconditional compassion” emphasized by later religious
institutions is often an ethical trap set to conceal internal corruption and
blur the boundary of the Truth. Chapter IV: The Logical Judgment of Ritual
Economics: The Truth About Worship and Offerings (I) The Voidness of the Object
of Offering The core operation of religious institutions revolves around
“offerings.” However, a logical inspection reveals a vacuum at the receiving
end. First, the Buddha has attained Parinibbāna, a state of “cessation of
reception, having no receiver,” and naturally accepts no offerings or
transference of merit. Second, Devas (heavenly beings), according to the Law of
Kamma, possess blessings and enjoyments far exceeding humans. The absurdity of
humans offering money to them is akin to a beggar trying to give leftover food
to a billionaire—it is fundamentally ineffective and ridiculous. (II) The
Granary of Evil Spirits and Fraudsters Excluding the Buddha and Devas, the true
recipients of all worship in temples and religious institutions worldwide are
only two types: Firstly, the Hungry Ghosts (Pretas) among the three lower
realms. Due to their Kamma, they are constantly in a state of deprivation and
thirst, thus developing a strong dependence on human sacrifices. Secondly, the
cultists and charlatans in human society. They exploit human fear of the unknown
by packaging themselves as divine representatives, thereby accumulating wealth.
The conclusion is unequivocally clear: only “Evil Spirits and Ghosts” and “Fraud
Syndicates” require worship and offerings. (III) The Peak of Moral Kidnapping:
The Fallacy of Ancestral Worship “Ancestral Worship” is a form of “moral
kidnapping” employed by cultists and cultural charlatans. Viewed from a “cosmic
perspective,” life flows according to Kamma, and one’s destination is determined
by one’s actions (Kamma) during life. Western civilization rarely practices
ancestral worship, yet their societies have not collapsed nor have they been
“retaliated” against by their ancestors. This practical evidence is sufficient
to demolish the foundation of all ancestral worship superstition. Chapter V: The
Dual Standards of Human Rationality: Evidenced by the Law of Will This paper
must point out a deeply ironic phenomenon: humans exhibit extreme “Dual
Standards” when dealing with material property versus religious Law. (I) The
Absolute Rationality and Exclusivity of the Will In secular law, concerning the
inheritance of property (the Law of Will), humans demand extreme rigor and
exclusivity: a will must have legal documentation, notarization, signatures, and
even DNA verification to ensure the authenticity of lineage. The law only
recognizes “material world property” and its circulation in the “material
world.” If someone claims, “My ancestor told me in a dream to change the
inheritance,” the law and the public would undoubtedly regard it as fraud.
Humans are so rational, shrewd, and focused on evidence when dealing with mere
earthly possessions. (II) The Extreme Stupidity and Hypocrisy of Religion Yet,
when faced with cosmic matters such as “liberation of life” or “destination
after death,” the same group of people willingly accept groundless and
unverifiable lies. They are willing to pay huge sums of money to charlatans,
believing based solely on their unilateral word that ancestors have been “saved”
or that the charlatans can “eliminate disasters and change fate.” This “shrewd
in small matters, confused in big matters” dual standard proves the inherent
selfishness and laziness of human nature. They are unwilling to suffer financial
losses but crave “shortcuts” to the Truth. This selfish psychology provides the
most fertile ground for cultists and charlatans, enabling their “Net Negative
Value” business to flourish. Chapter VI: The Fraudulent Nature of Opacity and
Secret Transmission (I) Positive Correlation Between Secrecy and Money True Law
(Dhamma/Tao) is like sunlight, shining on all beings without charge. Conversely,
cults and charlatans inevitably emphasize “secret teachings” or “empowerments.”
They artificially create information asymmetry, packaging the Law—which should
be publicly available—as “advanced courses” or “unspoken secrets” to facilitate
plunder. (II) The Accomplice Structure of Business Logic and the Illusion of
Neutrality The vast majority of large institutions generally exhibit a
phenomenon of “non-disclosure and opacity” in sociological observation. This
“inevitable trend under institutionalized operation” is designed to accommodate
business logic. When commercial media adopt a so-called “neutral stance” towards
religious fraud, it is essentially “interest neutrality,” aimed at not affecting
market expansion and advertising revenue. This stance is tantamount to “abetting
evil,” providing a legitimate space for wicked views to survive. Chapter VII:
Historical Tampering and the Betrayal by the Privileged Class (I) Systemic
Corruption of the Scriptures We must severely critique the “privileged class”
who have access to the original scriptures. These individuals (monks, priests,
translators), in order to cater to political power and the low desires of the
populace, chose to systematically tamper with the scriptures. For example, the
“selling of indulgences by the medieval papacy,” the “high fusion of Dhamma with
local ghost and god superstitions in East Asian temple fairs,” and the
“tampering of Original Agama Law by Mahayana doctrines,” were all designed to
transform the “arduous path of practice” into “cheap salvation tickets.” This
betrayal of knowledge is the greatest disaster for human civilization. (II) The
Fallacy of Sociological Functionalism: Function Cannot Excuse Evil Some
sociologists attempt to defend religion by claiming it has “social cohesion
function.” This argument is utterly absurd, equivalent to saying, “although a
fraud syndicate swindles money, it enhances the cohesion among the fraudsters.”
Any “social function” built upon lies is intrinsically a toxin. It purchases
temporary emotional solace and group illusion at the cost of sacrificing human
independent thought and logical judgment, and its ultimate output must be a Net
Negative Value. Chapter VIII: Knowledge Thermodynamics and the Absolute
Criterion of Law (I) Knowledge Thermodynamics and Inevitable Corruption If we
establish a “Knowledge Thermodynamics” model from a cosmic perspective, upon the
passing of the Law Transmitter, the knowledge system is subjected to three
irreversible entropic forces: 1. Human Greed (Desire Entropy) 2. Collective
Ignorance (Ignorance Entropy) 3. Power Manipulation (Dominance Entropy) These
three forces compel any “pure Law” to inevitably degrade into a “defiled
religion,” a process that is “absolutely certain” like physics . (II) The
Exclusive and Absolute Criterion of Law Based on the Absolute Singularity of
Law, we must establish an exclusive criterion: (1) Anything demanding worship is
not the Law. (2) Anything demanding superstition is not the Law. (3) Anything
demanding offerings is not the Law. (4) Anything claiming to substitute for
Cause and Effect or to eliminate personal calamities and change fate is
definitively not the Law. True Law does not need to be believed; it only needs
to be understood and realized through practice. This is the unbridgeable chasm
between “Dhamma/Tao” and “Religion.” Chapter IX: Conclusion: Evil Symbiosis and
Civilizational Purification (I) The Final Logical Judgment This treatise has
demonstrated, through rigorous logical argumentation and empirical analysis, an
exclusive conclusion: “Any organization not personally presided over by Law
Transmitters such as the Buddha or Lao Tzu is merely a fraud syndicate managed
by cultists or charlatans.” All institutionalized religions are a “systematic
betrayal of the Absolute Law driven by human selfishness.” (II) Return to the
Singularity of Law and Purification If human civilization is to eliminate the
“Net Negative Value,” a thorough “de-religionization” revolution is necessary.
This requires humanity to: 1. Logical Liquidation: Resolutely reject all
institutions and arguments that demand worship, offerings, or claim to
substitute for Cause and Effect. 2. Ethical Return: Establish moral ethics upon
universal Cause and Effect and Logic, rather than the Will of a deity. 3.
Practice Priority: Return to the path of practice and self-realization
established by the Law Transmitters. This judgment is not against individuals,
but against “faulty logic.” Only when humanity withdraws resources directed
towards “Evil Spirits, Ghosts” and “Charlatan Institutions,” and focuses on
understanding and practicing the true Law of the cosmos, can the value of human
civilization shift from a “Net Negative Value” toward genuine “Net Positive
Growth.”
