The Importance of a Buddhist Anarchism
Buddhism expresses itself as anarchist communism making Buddhist practice a form of revolutionary practice. The Buddha structured the monastic institution according to anarchist communist principles and rebuts possible challenges rooted in some of the Buddha's explicit social teachings. Buddhism is not philosophical in nature but rather based on reason deduction or induction speculative fancy or whimsicality direct experience is the foundation of the Buddhist position on the nature of reality. We remain what the Buddha called a foolish prominent person blind and sightless who does not know reliance upon direct individual experience is a critical component of Buddhist practice.
