Quote:Does it? I've never heard any Buddhist claim that.
I'm afraid that is irrelevant. Perhaps do some broader reading.
Buddhism,like its base religion,Hinduism,is not homogeneous. It ranges from alogical Zen to belief in gods,demons as well an imaginative mythology about the Buddha. Tibetan Buddhism also has some rather extreme ideas about demons and possessed oracles,to the extent that it can seem more like shamanism than Buddhism.
