The most common criticism of Buddhism, that there is an atheist religion.
Buddhists certainly do not believe in God but do not usually use the word 'God', because the word is usually taken to mean a belief in a personal God, in other words, a belief in theistic God Theism is the belief in a God personnel involved in everything and created the universe. He is a supernatural being, love, wise, almighty and merciful, and that is always present everywhereconsidered completely separate from humanity.
The Buddhist concept of God is sometimes thought, pantheistic, that God is the sum of the universe, in other words, that God identifies with all that exists is to suggest. Buddhists believe that God is equal to the universe, he is absolute and transcendent. This world is a manifestation of God and is limited and imperfect.
Most Buddhists believe that all the different phenomena, the derivation consists of aThe reality, as different as they appear, have a common nature and this type is not used in a given time and place, and words to try to describe this kind would be totally inappropriate and misleading.
The people are never satisfied with this kind of explanation and not always looking for some unifying principle that unites the world of appearances and on imperfect and transcendent reality, which some might call God. "
The principle of moreotherwise it is called in Buddhism ", nanatva 'and the sense in which everything is really the same, or each one is called' Samata '. All religions recognize these two spheres of reality, even if he would use different words to describe it. Samata Christians call "God" would be, and nanatva, creation.
Buddhism recognizes these two principles of equality and difference are so many things and yet, I am you and you are not me, yet we are one in essence. A Japanese poetwrote:
"The rain and hail and ice and snow,
None of the other, then!
If you melt, but see,
Find the gear in a stream of water! "
There is no intellectual answer to the paradox of Communication "I am not you, but you are like me." The paradox is, a mystical inner truth and the realization of this truth leads Buddhists to see that "God is transcendent and immanent in the universe, God is in us, we can not as a double for the world and God's religion is notto leave the world to find God, but to find there. The flowers on the ground and the choirboy in the cathedral and sing the praises of God
The differences and disputes and religions are all part of the world of difference, ultimately, religions have different names and different concepts of the same reality. True peace is in reality, or if you will, in God
