I was watching the video from the Unchained YouTube channel about Lee’s teachings on the mind, and realized few things. I read this comment from someone in the comments section, and it just reminded me of a lot of things in LC.
Quote:
Great video I once studied Zen Buddhism and a
Chinese Taoism and in both there is the doctrine of
"wu-hsin" which stands for "no-mind". No opinions
no beliefs. If you clear your mind you will be in your
"shen" which in Chinese means spirit. So emptying
your mind opens the way to your inner self which is
your spirit which in turn is one with the Cosmic Self,
and filled with the energy of the high Spirit.
In Pure Land Buddhism we find the repetition or
invoking of the name of the Lord ( Buddha). By
emptying the mind and invoking the holy name you
will be saved both in this world and the next's. This
resembles a hindu mantra in every way.
They systematically teach to reject your personal
ideas of good and evil, right and wrong to overcome
self and a sense of self. After all there is no real self
they say, and any ideas of right and wrong come
from your deluded mind.
Witness Lee's authoritarian and autocratic approach
borrowed heavily from Chinese indigenous religions
to create a. CCP type cult. Not even Chinese
religions use those teachings for group control but
several new Chinese and Korean cults have
borrowed from these ancient teachings found in
Buddhism and Taoism to build huge mass brain
washing cults that use the practice to enforce mass
conforming, mass formation brainless and blind
followers with totally suppressed and oppressed
individualities in order to become accepting
puppets of the regime or cult through fear of social
rejection and condemnation. See what happened in
China in 2020-22 to see how total control works
once the individual self is reduced to zero.
The Asian peoples come from highly authotitarian
societies and I would always be weary of any
"Christian" burch from the Far East as they all tend
to replicate their authoritarianism based on
Confucianism and now Communism. This is partly
why the Chinese have fallen easily into total
conformity to the most outrageous tyranny for over
half a century now.
The Local church is a typical Chinese new religion
that bears all the imprints ot the highly robot like
society it comes from. Asians have historically never
developed a sense of an independent self as
distinct from the herd like mentality that still
dominates them. That is what makes any religious
or political idea from the Far East VERY dangerous
to us westerners. See the Moonies for instance.
Social control by a small group of psychopaths is all
these cults and political regimes aim to do.
The Local Church fits perfectly in this category.
I was a local church activist and started local
churches in Uruguay, Argentina and Brazil between
1977 to 1981. Then I was red pilled and left for good
along with hundreds of others in Brazil never to
come back. Fortunately I was only 24 years old in
1981 and I could restart my life anew with little
psychological damage.
Best to you and keep up the good work of exposing
this oppresive cult.
