Buddhadasa developed a personal view that those who have penetrated the essential nature of religions consider 'all religions to be inwardly the same', while those who have the highest understanding of dhamma feel 'there is no religion'. ...more

Quotes by Buddhadasa Bhikkhu (?)

“Those who read books cannot understand the teachings and, what's more, may even go astray. But those who try to observe the things going on in the mind, and always take that which is true in their own minds as their standard, never get muddled. They are able to comprehend suffering, and ultimately will understand Dharma. Then, they will understand the books they read.”
― Buddhadasa Bhikkhu

“In the Buddha’s words, “Samāhito yathābhūtaṃ pajanati” (one with samādhi mind, unified mind, can see all things as they really are).”
