Not here to “correct you”. I’d only caution not to get too hung up on our superficial understanding of how Buddhists walk their way. With a loving eye you’ll see that “carrying one’s cross” and “resolving kharma” can be the same process of acknowledging & transcending our sins. Christians - adept in deep prayer - will agree that meditation and prayer on a fundamental level are one and the same. Which is why it makes sense that certain monasteries in Europe have included a couple of exercises from Buddhism. Not because Christianity was incomplete. But their approaches can complement each other elegantly. Also in explaining experiences that will happen on the way. I feel like some Christians approach/ understand their religion like “Be good here, receive award later”. Jesus showed us that Oneness in God is not necessarily delayed to a later date in time or another life. He wanted to lead us into God’s presence in our lifetime. And Buddhism is valuable in its focus on meditative/ religious practice. And yes, the Dalai Lama got fooled hard.
