Then the only thing left is to remove the one who desires.

Makes me almost cry

You have to realise that all conditioned phenomena are impermanent, unsatysfying and are dependently arisen (do not exist just by themselves). Three charactaristics of existence.

Redefine desire to mean something different.

Follow the instructions instead of chasing the desire of ceasing desire or becoming enlightened. When you start to realize, desire dissipate and is replaced with contentment.

Every house has imperfections in its walls, in the form of openings called windows. Thats how the light gets in.

Desire isn't even the root, it's part of the process of arising

Uh oh. You’ve summoned the /x/perts of Buddhism. About to get a whole thread about souls and and other western spiritual bullshit that contradicts itself.

Yes, that's the final step and the prime impediment for achieving Jhanas. That's what meditation is for, ceasing to desire cessation.

The teachings are a raft for reaching the other shore, where the teachings no longer become necessary.
The teachings themselves are provisional.

That's why the heart sutra says
>There is no suffering, and no cause of suffering. There is no cessation of suffering, and no path.

One must come to terms with contradictions and what seem like paradoxes to understand buddhism.
If you expect the soteriology to be simple like a faith like Christianity you'll get lost.

To enter Heaven you need to cease to desire to enter Heaven.

>>40925062
wouldn't that also be a desire to remove the one who desires

>>40925039 (OP)
That's... literally what happened, he removed even the desire to remove desire, and achieved enlightenment. Self-induced ego death that without drugs in a brain rewrite that makes you one zen ass nigga for life. You've killed your last experience, and are free to know, you're not coming back anymore, and you don't care. You've suicided your being. That's what the removal of desires is, the cycle is a world of pain and this is your means of rest. To abandon all desires is to let the soul retire for good.
