Get the Stanky Buddah mug.‘‘You buddhu! How can you take so long to add two and two!’’
Origin: India (Hindi/Bengali)
At some point in Ancient Indian history the word “Buddhu”(बुद्धू ), which was corruption of word “Baudh”(बौद्ध, meaning Buddhist), was started to be used by Non-Buddhist to refer to Buddhists pejoratively. And this word was used, condescendingly, by Non-Buddhists to refer to Buddhists as stupid/idiot. The word must have, at some point, entered the general lexicon to refer to any person, in general, with limited mental cognition of temporary nature or otherwise.

An offshoot of Brahminism/Vedism taught by the Indian Prince Gautama Siddhartha, which declared that there was no permanent self (Atman) and that liberation from suffering was to be found not by worshipping gods but by escaping from the cycle of birth and death. According to Gautama Buddha, suffering and rebirth are caused by attachment to things which are devoid of independent existence and thus impermanent.
While generally classified as a religion, Buddhism is probably more accurately described as a spiritual path. However, many Buddhist sects contain strong religious elements.
Buddha himself told his disciples that understanding in Buddhism should be established through personal insight rather than faith or revelation.
Some modern Buddhists, especially in the West, do not accept the ideas of karma and rebirth (after death) at face value.

Get the buddah mug.A Jewish person who finds fulfillment in Buddhist philosophy and practices, but has not given up their Jewish identity. Mostly found in those of the "baby boomer" generation who were unsatisfied with a stauch, unfeeling Judaism of the 1950's and 1960's. For an excellent illustration of this group of Jews who make up rougly 30% of practicing Buddhists in America see "Jew in the Lotus," by Rodger Kamenetz.

Get the jewish-buddhists (jubus) mug.Today, a young philosophy major on Magic Mushrooms, realized that all matter in the Universe is merely energy condensed to a slow vibration; that our souls are actually the electronic energy connections within our minds. That we are all one universal consciousness born into separate realities, experiencing itself subjectively. There is NO such thing as space and time or death; life is only an existential dream, and everything that ever thrived in the universe (humans, animals, plants, stars) is the imagination of ourselves.
Pretty much true.
