Early Buddhism Was a Cult

Buddhism has not started many rebellions that i know of, or many revolutions. And in fact, he has benefited tremendously for being very cosy to people at the top of the power pyramid. In its function, it became quite servative. But here's the important thing that i would emphasizeand that i build on. From the very beginning, buddhism has emphasized impermanence and insubstantiality. It goes back to what we were saying earlier about interdependence. The world isn't a collection of things. It's a confluence of processes. One of these, or several of these processes, are buddhism.
