No - Buddhism sees its central ideas to be radical and counter-cultural - particularly that one's actions should come from ethical principles rather than just conforming to a group.
- mbrock 7y agoDoes it teach working laymen to embrace radical and countercultural ideas? That’s not my impression of Buddhism in Thailand, Burma, Japan, etc.
