Why are rich white people more drawn to Eastern religions than Christianity?

This was a trend for a few years. Is it still a thing? I assumed it just fell out of fashion. Trannyism is the new white woman religion.

It's just women, and it's cause they're spiritually devoid.

No, upper middle class and up white girl still like yoga and meditation. They're not actually active in those religions however, it's mostly for looks. Though yoga atleast keeps them thin.

Rich people have too much leisure time to find simple abrahamic "obey or else" religion to be interesting.

Pseudospirituality. They are materialistic and treat spirituality as d something m materialistic, not inner. Eastern cults have lot of exterior. But are null and void on spiritual level. See hindu or Buddhism. Also scary numbers

it was a lot easier to be into "eastern religions" when it was mostly abstract, with some cool translated texts and some calm robed gurus on TV. Now "eastern people" are literally everywhere, they don't seem wise at all, they seem annoying, and criminal, and their weird ass religions are no longer abstract to you they erect statues of literal monsters in the town square

Eastern religions required zero or minimal commitment. One does not have to go to temples or shrines if they don't want too. There's no extremism and no judgement if one doesn't want to participle in worships.

Buddhism is all about "non-self" actually.

They have empty, dull lives. Unfortunately the majority of the middle classes, regardless of political persuasion are complete and utter midwits who have been fooled into a false sense of superiority by their meaningless corporate positions.

Well, either way, It's the SELF part that lures the rich in. Desert religions that revolves around ''We'' gives them ick.

Christianity is Jewish dogshit. Eastern religion is vague nonsense. It makes sense why they'd switch. Shit thread btw.

I got involved in the higher self nonsense in the 90’s. They do not believe in the separation of being and that everyone is part of the divine and therefore you are good. This is nonsense, as it would mean that you don’t exist and would logically mean that dharma is false. There is no sacrifice in this system and what good things that you have are a result of dharma. Essentially you are a good person and you deserve all that you have, and those that don’t have deserve that as well, so you don’t need to feel guilty.

Most western women are incapable meditating deeply enough to truly understand that though.

i encourage you to research what buddha thought of women practicing buddhism. don't let vapid and vain females seeking attention mislead you about one of the most logical and thus manly ways to think about life.

because christianity demands you give where as eastern spirituality is you learn to be happy with what you have.

Buddhism as taught by the Buddha is almost an atheistic philosophy but the countries that practice is added a bunch of folk religion elements to appeal to the plebs
