there are many teachings of buddhism, but most of them are "new age" hype. Where are all the genuine books?
Hey guys, Ive done my research and almost every buddhism/self help book i come across is revised, new age, pop psychology non-sense. "The Doctrine of the Buddha" seems to be the only genuine book i read so far & I dont understand why Cons like Dr Wayne W Dyer and Rhonda Byrne and many others are so popular when they're teachings have no value whatsoever. Seems to me the majority of the new age spiritual Gurus/teachers are the popular ones with all the fame. Where are the real spiritual teachers? Thank you so much to everybody that took the time out to read this, god bless you.
Buddhism will not save You, Buddha didn't rise from the dead, nor did Confucius or Zoroaster. Muhammad didn't fulfill detailed prophecy. Alexander the Great didn't raise the dead or heal the sick. And though there is far less reliable information written about them, people believed in them.
The scripture is right when it says in 1 Pet. 2:7-8, "This precious value, then, is for you who believe. But for those who disbelieve, 'The stone which the builders rejected, this became the very corner stone,' and, 'A stone of stumbling and a rock of offense'; for they stumble because they are disobedient to the word, and to this doom they were also appointed." (NASB).
