Satanism & Buddha and Hinduism

svenbugado1 min to read

I read somewhere, can't remember now, that Satan was Buddha, which sounds inaccurate, because the teachings diverge, even through I believe they are different ways to the same goal.

I also read that Satan was Shiva, which is less inaccurate than Satan being Buddha, but it is still inaccurate by the story teachings, character, complexity etc.
I ask my comrades to elucidate me on this matter, because after reading part of the Bhagavad Gita, I am sure that Lord Krishna is also an all powerfull God that came to help humans achieve enlightment.
Anyone here ever had contact with Hindu Gods? Anyone knows the opinion of Satan about them? Are Hinduism and Buddhism (the true buddhism that Julius Evola and the own Buddha describes, not the twisted peace and love stuff for housewifes) "friendly" paths to Satanism? One can have faith in Satan and in Hindu Gods? One can follow Buddha and Satan? 
Help me, friends, because I'm confused.

I can't see Satan being connected to Buddhism at all. He is *for* life, the ego being healthy and enjoying your desires.Buddhism is about renouncing everything to become empty, void, to escape the cycle of life/death/rebirth. Whyever would Satan encourage us to stop being??

As for Satan and Hinduism, there are deep ties. Look through the messages, and you will find all sorts of information.

Notes on Buddhism

The original God that Gautama is a stolen and corrupted version of is Surya who is Visnu. This is evidenced [of the primordial Buddhism article] and in the fact the famous Buddhist statues are images of Visnu and how he was traditionally shown. And the further fact the Mahayana sects all emerged from the major Vaishnava temple centers in India. This is because this was the traditional religion still at some point in the past. The Mahayana or Tantric Buddhism came up from the Pala Kingdom of northern India. So I don't believe the Theravada sects claims theirs is the original either. As they are nothing but a atheistic, soul denying, humanist cult.

In the earliest Pali texts Siddhartha states that Buddhism is purifying the Chita. Chita and Atman used interchangeably as they are the same. Which is the soul. Buddha and Brahman are also interchangeable terms.

The fact Siddhartha affirms the existence of the self/soul and its purification as the heart of Buddhism. Defeats the central doctrine of which all Theravada is built upon which is no soul/self. Theravada is a horrible, Christianised corruption of the original Solar Tradition.

The technical language in the Pali is from the Upanishads. And one can note such texts are full of instructions on activating and rising the kundalini. And open declarations this is the task's monastics are engaged in. The evidence all shows at the core the system of Buddhism was the Magnum Opus.

The tales of Buddha's crucifixion and resurrection from the tomb and bodily ascension to Nirvana state it all. This is the traditional symbol of the soul rising from the Saturn sphere of time, karma or samsara and to the solar sphere of luminous immortality. Depicted as the sun of which Nirvana is depicted as.

At some point this was altered to the poison bowl of Kunda. But not by much. The poison is the final dissolution of the gross material aspect, poison is corrosive it burns and breaks down. This is why traditionally snakes venom was used to depict this. Kunda the metal smith is Kundalini or serpentine energies in his destructive aspect the power of time. Kundry in the surviving Western branch of this tradition is the European version of Kali. Who causes the final transmutation of the soul to perfection. This is the black stage. Kunda is also the title for the kunda-lini energy in India and is depicted as a Goddess dwelling a cave. From here Buddha obtains the highest Jhana and enters into Nirvana. Which is a toned down rebirth into the white or final stage. Its life number is 84 and this adds into 12 and himself is the 13th step of the Magnum Opus.

Tathagata a common used title of Buddha does not mean "One who has come." It means "Become Brahman." The Upanishads and many other Vedic texts state over and over again one becomes Brahman when the serpent is risen. Buddha's tale under the Bodhi tree which is the mystic tree at the navel of the earth is obvious to this allegory. Bodhi is the same element of that Buddha is relating towards and thus Brahman. So we have the spinal column and the risen serpent. Its very obvious when the morning star appears at this moments as its the age old symbol of kundalini rising.

Buddha never stated anything about a middle path. He called it the lighting path. Which is this power again.

Nagarjuna who is considered to be the creator of Mahayana stated that everything is nothingness and the Mahayana Buddhist's strive to become empty thus achieving Buddhahood. Its obvious this emptiness is the Akasha or ether. And obtaining emptiness is purifying the soul into the primal element of the subtle ether which is the Magnum Opus. This is mentioned to create the Diamond thunder bolt or rainbow body. Which Tantric Buddhism states is done by Kundalni energy. Laya Yoga is equal to Nirvana in its meaning. LA=earth element the body, YA=ether element. The purification process. Which bring union of the trine being into the ascended form. This is what came up from the Maha Siddha's of the Pala Kingdom.

The arrows all point to originally Buddha was the reborn Visnu [Surya] who was called Buddha, Krisna, Agni, Hari,, And Brahma towards the Hindu period and Siva in the South. which was the religion of over 15,000 years. And was Regraphed at some point by taking over the cultural language and putting new meanings behind it. Which corrupted into the mess of today. The point the Theravada's believe the opposite as their core truth of what this Siddhartha character actual stated as the core truth of Buddhism. That's an extreme level of corruption. And had to be deliberate.

This Siddhartha is paraded as the reborn God, born from immaculate conception and emerges from his mothers left side, and dies and is reborn, who has incarnated to purify the Veda's of all the corruptions thus the gate way to assign new meanings. Which removes all spiritual knowledge looking at what Theravada amounts to, then replaces it with Communism with spiritual pretense.

An examination of THE MOST IMPORTANT word in Buddhism, the citta (nous/spirit/mind/will) and its 17 proprietary declarations in sutta.

These 17 designations made in sutta are given only as regards the citta, no other proper noun is given such status. Nothing but the citta itself is lauded in so many proprietary and important ways as is the citta below. There is no higher acclaim in Buddhism than these 16 which are said only of the citta.

Example: 5. Citta is the only thing which is differentiated from the five aggregates (rupa/vedana/sanna/sankhara/vinnana): "Whatever form, feelings, perceptions, experiences, or consciousness there is (the five aggregates), these he sees to be without permanence, as suffering, as ill, as a plague, a boil, a sting, a pain, an affliction, as foreign, as otherness, as empty (suññato), as Selfless (anattato). So he turns his mind (citta, Non-aggregate) away from these; therein he gathers his mind within the realm of Immortality (amataya dhatuya). This is tranquility; this is that which is most excellent!" [MN 1.436, AN 4.422].
[MN 1.511] "For a long time I have been cheated, tricked and hoodwinked by my citta. For when grasping, I have been grasping onto form, for when grasping, I have been grasping onto feelings, , for when grasping, I have been grasping onto perceptions, for when grasping, I have been grasping onto experiences, for when grasping, I have been grasping onto consciousness."

NOTHINGISM (Natthika), A Buddhist heresy
Buddhism differs from the "nothing-morist" (Skt. Nastika, Pali natthika) in affirming a spiritual nature that is not in any wise, but immeasurable, inconnumerable, infinite, and inaccessible to observation; and of which, therefore, empirical science can neither affirm nor deny the reality thereof of him who has 'Gone to That" (tathatta). It is to the Spirit (Skt. Atman, Pali attan) as distinguished from oneself (namo-rupa)-i.e., whatever is phenomenal and formal (Skt. and Pali nama-rupa, and savinnana-kaya) "name and appearance", and the "body with its consciousness".
#1. Vimanavatthu #1252-1253 "My name was Piyasi, I held sway over the Kosalans; I held the view of a nihilist (natthikaditthi), was of evil habbit and was miserly; I was an anti-foundationalist/annihilationist then (ucchedavada)....[#1253] "...a recluse Kumarakassapa gave me a talk on the Dhamma and drove from me those (previously held) evil views! (annihilationism/nihilism)."
#2. natthatta'ti (literally "there is not/no+atta'[Soul]" has only 5 occurrences (all at SN 4.400) anywhere in Sutta/Atthakatha (even the worthless Abhidhamma). Anatta' is not "no-Soul", but natthatta' which is deemed, by Gotama, to be Ucchedavada annihilationistic heresy. Sutta states explicitly that natthatta' (no-Soul) = natthika (nihilism) = ucchedavada
(Annihilationism). If you do hold the view that there is "no-Soul", you are a Natthika (nihilist); i.e. a Ucchedavadin.
#3. Petekopadesapali 40 Ucchedavada=Natthika
#4. SN 1.96 Bhikkhu Bodhi's translation "The nihilist...goes to terrible hell...from darkness to darkness". What Bhikkhu Bodhi failed to realize is that SN 4.400 Natthatta (no-Soul) is = Ucchedavada (Annihilationism) which is = natthika as per (petekopadesapali 40, etc.). If Bhikkhu Bodhi knew that these three were synonymous with each other, he would certainly reconsider his translation of natthika as "nihilist".
#5 To hold the view that there is "no-Soul" (natthatta) is = to ucchedavada (SN 4.400) [Annihilationism] = natthika (nihilist).
#6. [SN 2.17] 'Nonbeing (asat, natthiti [views of either sabbamnatthi 'the all is ultimately not' (atomism), and sabbam puthuttan 'the all is merely composite (atoms)' [SN 2.77] both are heresies of annihilationism])'".

What has Buddhism to say of the Self? "That's not my Self" (na me so atta); and the term "non Self-ishness" (anatta) are predicated of the world and all "things" (sabbe dhamma anatta); identical with the Brahmanical "of those who are mortal, there is no Self/Soul", (anatma hi martyah), [SB., II. 2. 2. 3]). [KN J-1441] "The Soul is the refuge that I have gone unto". For anatta is not said of the Self/Soul but what it is not. There is never a 'doctrine of no-Soul', but a doctrine of what the Soul (The Self) is not (form is anatta, feelings are anatta, etc.). It cannot be denied that what is anatta is indeed the mere and petty self for [SN 3.196], and countless other passages, the mere self of psycho-physicality is = anatta = khandhas; that same self which the disciple is instructed to have his will/mind/spirit (ctta) reject in the face of illumination and insight.

The 'reflexive position' fallacy taken by illogical modern 'Buddhism' proclaims the Pali term Attan (Skt. Atman, Self) to be merely a reflexive term meaning "oneself, himself, herself", however the reflexive and empirical mere self is, regardless of translation, "anatta" i.e. "na me so atta" (not my Soul), or also "eso khandhassa na me so atta" (these aggregates [forms, feelings, perceptions, experiences, consciousness =mere self] are no the Self, the Soul). As pertains the reflexive self, of who proclaim "myself, himself, herself" we are referring to "that person so-and-so (Larry, Sue, etc.)", the empirical and psycho-physical (namo-rupa) self of blood and sinew which is "doomed to fall into the grave at long last", the very same self the poetic dead are said to cry out to the living "what you are, we (the dead) once were,. what we are you shall be!". Even more illogical is the double standard of commentarialist and sectarian 'Buddhists' who desire anatta to mean 'no-Soul' as well as atta to mean simply 'myself, himself, herself'; wherein illogically atta in the adjective anatta is, to their ignorant minds = Soul ('no-soul'), but atta in standalone = 'myself'. As illogical an end result, modern Buddhism has proclaimed atta (atman/soul) = anatta (not-atman)! Its quite hard to fathom any position more senseless than this, however this is one of the countless reasons modern 'Buddhism' is illogical without end. However doctrinally and logically so, what IS anatta (the five psycho-physical aggregates of the mere empirical, corporeal self) are indeed 'myself', in so meaning the mortal (mata) self composed of the bodily humors which is fated to death. That mere self is never implied nor meant when Buddhism speaks of immortality and the path leading to same (amatagamimagga) [SN 5.9], of which "the body cannot pass that gate to fare beyond,..only the Soul (The Self)" -Udana

The term Tathagata is composed of two parts, Tat, and agata. Tat has been since time immemorial in India, meant Brahman, the Absolute, as in the famous Upanishadic dictum: "That (Brahman) thou art" (tat tvam asi). "That" is here, of course Brahman, the Godhead, the Subject of Selfhood which the muni, or sage, has reached at the pinnacle of his having fulfilled wisdom's perfection. Agata is the past tense denotation of gata (going, traveling, trekking), here being meant "arrival, gone-unto, attainment of, arrival-at". As such, Tathagata in the ancient Prakrit Pali, is meant literally "(The sage who has) arrived at the Absolute", or in Sramanic context of Vedanta and Buddhism, "(He-thou) is (arrived at) That". The very term Tathagata, which has of yet never been discovered by anyone until now, is none other than a personal appellation of that very rare someone who has realized by wisdom "tat tvam asi". The Tathagata, therefore, is equally as well meant "The 'tat tvam asi' comprehensor/sage". It is unfathomable that modern so-called Buddhism's position is that the spiritual appellation of the Buddha's attainment, "attained/arrived at Brahman" (Tathagata) is merely an honorary designation for a popular sage. As [It 57] and other passages clearly show, "become-Brahman" is the meaning of the term Tathagata, or he who has arrived (agata), again being meant the transfiguration and assimilation of the mind (citta) in upon itself (bhava), and thereby achieving the Absolute, i.e. Brahman, as such (brahmabhutam tathagata) is said. To say that Tathagata, is meant by nonsensical "Buddhism", to the effect: that Tathagata denotes the "thus-come one", or "thus-gone one" has no contextual validity, is utterly illogical to read Pali as such, and carries no meaning whatsoever, which is all the more so magnified given that the very term Tathagata carries, regardless of translation, a very weighty importance and denotation; thereby secular 'Buddhism' intends to castrate the meaning of the term Tathagata, is yet another resection of original Buddhism by modern sects to turn Buddhism into a moralistic movement devoid of metaphysics.

Skanda, Satan And Primordial Greece The Bible Admits Satan Is Zeus-Dionysus, Thus Sanat Kumara or Siva Our God.

This is from a excellent thread in the egroups:

To further emphasize what HP Carlson has stated.

Skanda is shown as red sitting on the Peacock. The red colour represents the Final stage of alchemy the Gold which is male thus Solar and red is the male colour and sitting upon the Peacock represents this reborn power. The Peacock is the Phoenix. The bird of rebirth. Skandia is also called the Kumara. And his mysteries are the oldest in the East. Danielou states the God is always shown as an 16 year old, eternal youth which is what Sanat Kumara literally means. Which is Skanda who is the reborn Siva/Dionysus. Thus Siva. As Siva is shown in the most ancient image of Sanat Kumara the eternally young male of 16 years. 1+6=7 the number of completion. The Peacock is shown worshipping the Siva Langham of which a serpent is shown coiled around in many images.

His birth within the water and the Pleiades represent the seven charka's fully opened and perfected with Skanda sitting atop the waters on a lotus is an ancient symbols of the Magnum Opus even in Egypt is also the Ankh and Hari which is the reborn Ptah-Osiris. Agni taking the six sparks from Siva is the purification of the six charka's [thus being] via this etherical light Siva represents and the purification of it via Agni. Agni represents the fire of purification of the gross elements into the refined etherical light[Siva]. The six faces also represent the risen power and perfected chakra's and the parts of the brain each center relates towards. This is the symbol of the reborn superconscious state. The tale of his birth have identical elements to that of his worship as Dionysus in the West. Siva is shown riding a panther in very ancient images as Dionysus does as well. Siva's trident becomes the Thyrsus in the west. Siva's ancient rites still are based on baptism in the sacred Homa wine which brings rebirth and immorality. Which is the intoxicating wine, the nectar of the energies of the soul. The serpent power.

The water is the life force energies and hints at the flood of the dissolution period of the final stage of alchemy. The Reed swamp is also in Sumeria and Egyptian tales and represents the blessed field which is also Nirvana which represents the perfected state of the etherical light. I wrote about in the article on AUM Cosmology. Ptah-Osiris in Egypt and EA in Sumeria rule over the Blessed Field. The reed is a symbol of the energies of the soul and the Meru Column.

Here are the links to artilces to explain the subject I mention here indepth:

Skanda also means "Jet of Sperm" which relates to this etherical energy/ the golden element. The seed mantra literally means the semen of Siva of which Siva is the name of this energy.

This is the same with Zeus Dionysus. Dionysus who is Satan as I have wrote about many times. Is called the Second Zeus because he is the reborn and perfected Zeus. Just as Skanda is called the second Siva for the same reason. The Greeks came right from Helladiva which is today Sri Lanka [who still worship Siva]. To the point ancient Greece is nothing but transplanted India in Europe. The original God Korous in the primordial Greek period before the destruction of their civilization at the time of the end of Crete. Which marks their decline and loss of cultural knowledge. Korous later became Zeus. Korous is shown naked, the symbol of rebirth. This is important because Korous is perfectly described as the same way Skanda-Siva is. And Krisna as well. Who is the another version of Skanda-Siva in the North of which I have shown in articles. When we go back to Korous and primordial Hellas, we can see clearly this is the fact. There are still ancient Serpentine Lingham stones all over Greece from their Pagan sacred centers.

When the Greek army stopped in Sri Lanka sailing on their way home after the end of Alexander's campaign. They openly worshipped Siva-Skanda as Zeus-Dionysus.

The Bible in the book of revelations openly states Satan is the God Zeus-Dionysus.

Revelation 2:12 "Pergamos. Where Satan's throne is."

Peragmos was dedicated to the God Zeus [Dionysus] and the altar of the God was also the throne of the God.

"The Pergamon Altar is a massive structure originally built in the 2nd century BC in the Ancient Greek city of Pergamon. The temple was dedicated to the greek god Zeus. The Pergamon Altar was shipped out of the Ottoman Empire from the original excavation site by the German archeological team lead by Carl Humann, and reconstructed in the Pergamon Museum in Berlin in the 19th century, where it can be seen alongside other monumental structures such as the Ishtar Gate from Babylon."

Skanda's spear Vel, represents the power of the soul as the V represents the etherical power Mercury, and EL means God in Sumerian and other places also shining. V-ril means the same. With the r that symbols RA within it. Also representing the full raising of this power and the perfection from it. As a spear is a piercing weapon thus fixing the power as well. Which is the staff of Ptah-Osiris and Dionysus. And EA,s staff in Sumeria.

Being the warrior against the asura's and head of the Devonic forces is the destruction of the titanic aspects of the unpurified states. Skanda is the light of the soul that purifies the and transforms us to the Godhead. The firey kundalini energies. The Deva's realms represent the chakra centers

The birth of Kartikeya-Skanda is part of Shiva's alchemical process. Kartikeya-Skanda is associated with the Vedic Agni, who is Enki.

Kartikeya-Skanda, also known as Murugan and Sanat Kumara [another alias of Satan], was the "Serpent on the Tree" in Sri Lanka, the original "Garden of 'Eden,'" just like Enki was the serpent of Sumeria.

The Peacock is Satan's bird.

An examination of THE MOST IMPORTANT word in Buddhism, the citta (nous/spirit/mind/will) and its 17 proprietary declarations in sutta.

These 17 designations made in sutta are given only as regards the citta, no other proper noun is given such status. Nothing but the citta itself is lauded in so many proprietary and important ways as is the citta below. There is no higher acclaim in Buddhism than these 16 which are said only of the citta.

Example: 5. Citta is the only thing which is differentiated from the five aggregates (rupa/vedana/sanna/sankhara/vinnana): "Whatever form, feelings, perceptions, experiences, or consciousness there is (the five aggregates), these he sees to be without permanence, as suffering, as ill, as a plague, a boil, a sting, a pain, an affliction, as foreign, as otherness, as empty (suññato), as Selfless (anattato). So he turns his mind (citta, Non-aggregate) away from these; therein he gathers his mind within the realm of Immortality (amataya dhatuya). This is tranquility; this is that which is most excellent!" [MN 1.436, AN 4.422].

For when grasping, I have been grasping onto form, for when grasping, I have been grasping onto feelings, , for when grasping, I have been grasping onto perceptions, for when grasping, I have been grasping onto experiences, for when grasping, I have been grasping onto consciousness."

NOTHINGISM (Natthika), A Buddhist heresy
Buddhism differs from the "nothing-morist" (Skt. Nastika, Pali natthika) in affirming a spiritual nature that is not in any wise, but immeasurable, inconnumerable, infinite, and inaccessible to observation; and of which, therefore, empirical science can neither affirm nor deny the reality thereof of him who has 'Gone to That" (tathatta). It is to the Spirit (Skt. Atman, Pali attan) as distinguished from oneself (namo-rupa)-i.e., whatever is phenomenal and formal (Skt. and Pali nama-rupa, and savinnana-kaya) "name and appearance", and the "body with its consciousness".
#1. Vimanavatthu #1252-1253 "My name was Piyasi, I held sway over the Kosalans; I held the view of a nihilist (natthikaditthi), was of evil habbit and was miserly; I was an anti-foundationalist/annihilationist then (ucchedavada)....[#1253] "...a recluse Kumarakassapa gave me a talk on the Dhamma and drove from me those (previously held) evil views! (annihilationism/nihilism)."
#2. natthatta'ti (literally "there is not/no+atta'[Soul]" has only 5 occurrences (all at SN 4.400) anywhere in Sutta/Atthakatha (even the worthless Abhidhamma). Anatta' is not "no-Soul", but natthatta' which is deemed, by Gotama, to be Ucchedavada annihilationistic heresy. Sutta states explicitly that natthatta' (no-Soul) = natthika (nihilism) = ucchedavada
(Annihilationism). If you do hold the view that there is "no-Soul", you are a Natthika (nihilist); i.e. a Ucchedavadin.
#3. Petekopadesapali 40 Ucchedavada=Natthika
#4. SN 1.96 Bhikkhu Bodhi's translation "The nihilist...goes to terrible hell...from darkness to darkness". What Bhikkhu Bodhi failed to realize is that SN 4.400 Natthatta (no-Soul) is = Ucchedavada (Annihilationism) which is = natthika as per (petekopadesapali 40, etc.). If Bhikkhu Bodhi knew that these three were synonymous with each other, he would certainly reconsider his translation of natthika as "nihilist".
#5 To hold the view that there is "no-Soul" (natthatta) is = to ucchedavada (SN 4.400) [Annihilationism] = natthika (nihilist).
#6. [SN 2.17] 'Nonbeing (asat, natthiti [views of either sabbamnatthi 'the all is ultimately not' (atomism), and sabbam puthuttan 'the all is merely composite (atoms)' [SN 2.77] both are heresies of annihilationism])'".

What has Buddhism to say of the Self? "That's not my Self" (na me so atta); and the term "non Self-ishness" (anatta) are predicated of the world and all "things" (sabbe dhamma anatta); identical with the Brahmanical "of those who are mortal, there is no Self/Soul", (anatma hi martyah), [SB., II. 2. 2. 3]). [KN J-1441] "The Soul is the refuge that I have gone unto". For anatta is not said of the Self/Soul but what it is not. There is never a 'doctrine of no-Soul', but a doctrine of what the Soul (The Self) is not (form is anatta, feelings are anatta, etc.). It cannot be denied that what is anatta is indeed the mere and petty self for [SN 3.196], and countless other passages, the mere self of psycho-physicality is = anatta = khandhas; that same self which the disciple is instructed to have his will/mind/spirit (ctta) reject in the face of illumination and insight.

The 'reflexive position' fallacy taken by illogical modern 'Buddhism' proclaims the Pali term Attan (Skt. Atman, Self) to be merely a reflexive term meaning "oneself, himself, herself", however the reflexive and empirical mere self is, regardless of translation, "anatta" i.e. "na me so atta" (not my Soul), or also "eso khandhassa na me so atta" (these aggregates [forms, feelings, perceptions, experiences, consciousness =mere self] are no the Self, the Soul). As pertains the reflexive self, of who proclaim "myself, himself, herself" we are referring to "that person so-and-so (Larry, Sue, etc.)", the empirical and psycho-physical (namo-rupa) self of blood and sinew which is "doomed to fall into the grave at long last", the very same self the poetic dead are said to cry out to the living "what you are, we (the dead) once were,. what we are you shall be!". Even more illogical is the double standard of commentarialist and sectarian 'Buddhists' who desire anatta to mean 'no-Soul' as well as atta to mean simply 'myself, himself, herself'; wherein illogically atta in the adjective anatta is, to their ignorant minds = Soul ('no-soul'), but atta in standalone = 'myself'. As illogical an end result, modern Buddhism has proclaimed atta (atman/soul) = anatta (not-atman)! Its quite hard to fathom any position more senseless than this, however this is one of the countless reasons modern 'Buddhism' is illogical without end. However doctrinally and logically so, what IS anatta (the five psycho-physical aggregates of the mere empirical, corporeal self) are indeed 'myself', in so meaning the mortal (mata) self composed of the bodily humors which is fated to death. That mere self is never implied nor meant when Buddhism speaks of immortality and the path leading to same (amatagamimagga) [SN 5.9], of which "the body cannot pass that gate to fare beyond,..only the Soul (The Self)" -Udana

The term Tathagata is composed of two parts, Tat, and agata. Tat has been since time immemorial in India, meant Brahman, the Absolute, as in the famous Upanishadic dictum: "That (Brahman) thou art" (tat tvam asi). "That" is here, of course Brahman, the Godhead, the Subject of Selfhood which the muni, or sage, has reached at the pinnacle of his having fulfilled wisdom's perfection. Agata is the past tense denotation of gata (going, traveling, trekking), here being meant "arrival, gone-unto, attainment of, arrival-at". As such, Tathagata in the ancient Prakrit Pali, is meant literally "(The sage who has) arrived at the Absolute", or in Sramanic context of Vedanta and Buddhism, "(He-thou) is (arrived at) That". The very term Tathagata, which has of yet never been discovered by anyone until now, is none other than a personal appellation of that very rare someone who has realized by wisdom "tat tvam asi". The Tathagata, therefore, is equally as well meant "The 'tat tvam asi' comprehensor/sage". It is unfathomable that modern so-called Buddhism's position is that the spiritual appellation of the Buddha's attainment, "attained/arrived at Brahman" (Tathagata) is merely an honorary designation for a popular sage. As [It 57] and other passages clearly show, "become-Brahman" is the meaning of the term Tathagata, or he who has arrived (agata), again being meant the transfiguration and assimilation of the mind (citta) in upon itself (bhava), and thereby achieving the Absolute, i.e. Brahman, as such (brahmabhutam tathagata) is said. To say that Tathagata, is meant by nonsensical "Buddhism", to the effect: that Tathagata denotes the "thus-come one", or "thus-gone one" has no contextual validity, is utterly illogical to read Pali as such, and carries no meaning whatsoever, which is all the more so magnified given that the very term Tathagata carries, regardless of translation, a very weighty importance and denotation; thereby secular 'Buddhism' intends to castrate the meaning of the term Tathagata, is yet another resection of original Buddhism by modern sects to turn Buddhism into a moralistic movement devoid of metaphysics.

Thank you very much!
I didn't expect for such elaborated answers, I will take my time to read again and digest all of it.
