@DK_Dharmaraj@poa.st So what is secular buddhism anyway? Does it negate the idea of reincarnation? I figured that was pretty paramount to the religion as it's kind of ridiculous to think you can restore the universes karmic balance or whatever with "15 minute breathing exercises every other week day" or whatever fake and gay system the mindfullness cunts promote.
