Buddhism and Fear

During the query and answer period at the World Buddhist University after Kris’s talk on the Bodhisattva Tara, a colleague of the audience asked about whether Buddhism was governed by anticipate as is, according to him, Christianity. In Christianity, he said, people are motivated because they misgivings the fires of hell and the like, and he seemed to dream up that Buddhism offers a way out of this. Regardless how, when he heard the idea that there were a lot of chaos beings in Buddhism as well as hungry ghosts, who are wandering everywhere in samsara, he felt rather uneasy and proclaimed that Buddhism was not governed by unease. For him this would return to the unvarying situation. Buddhists appear to be motivated also by angst, fear of having to wander hither in samsara, spending some lives as scolding beings, others as hungry ghosts, etc.

This is a paraphernalia point for reflection. Is Buddhism governed by reverence? Does the teaching of the Buddha command credence and obedience because you wish taste the fires of hells if you not succeed to do so? Nothing is further from the reality. The first difference between Buddhism and a theistic dogma like Christianity is the absence of the greatest being who upholds the laws. According to the questioner here, the Christian God is a appalling creature, one who metes out punishments to those who do not effect his commands. You had better behave agreeably, or else God will punish you. This is a quite popular picture indeed. And one could then extrapolate that onto Buddhism. If you do not perform well, then watch out for the lives of reprimand beings, hungry ghosts or non-mortal animals.

I am not an expert of Christianity, but I about he is wrong on both counts. I don’t suppose that Christianity is governed by spectre in such a way that anyone who does not be good will immediately be angrily punished by an unforgiving God. If that is dedicated, then why did Jesus have to die on the splenetic? But I leave a more nuanced serve to the Christian theologian. My concern is with Buddhism. Since there is no God, the detached law of karma seems to stand in His put out as the ultimate law giver and upholder. But do things truly work that way in Buddhism?
