Last teaching of Lord Buddha in Korean and Japanese Buddhist scriptures - For information purpose only I am against it - Y2k

Shakyamuni, who eventually became the lord Buddha, was born a prince in India about 500 years prior to the coming of Jesus. He was very much disturbed as to how could human being be saved after having seen all the human miseries such as sins, hatred, murders, curses and vices, diseases and deaths. He left his prince hood and wandered through India in search for a relief of these sufferings. He went through several self efforts to attain a cure including self denial and torture with no avail. In his continuing humanly search for internal peace, he claimed he attained a sudden spiritual enlightenment by certain invisible power from above. He started to preach his new found truth for many that is known of today as Buddhist teaching. In his final written word named Ramaka Buddhist Doctrines (Namada sutra in Korean), he said: "When Jesus comes, my Tao (way) will be like a lamp without oil" or However, his posterity somehow distorted the core teachings of Shakyamuni and exploited them into setting up a religion. Buddhists in Korea have apparently been teaching that Jesus went to India 2000 years ago, received the teachings of Buddha, and went back to give rise to Christianity. However, if this was true, there should be the teaching of Shakyamuni in the Bible. But the truth is there is no evidence of any Buddhist teaching in the entire book of the word of God.

In the Korean Buddhist teachings, there are the books of Chunsoo the Keumkang the Prajna-para-mita, the Avatamska Tripitaka and Ramaka Buddhist Doctrines (Namada). In the Namada which is known as the last teaching of lord Buddha, he prophesized the coming of Jesus in about 500 years later. Namada teaching (38:8) recorded that his doctrines would all be useless when Jesus comes. The verse that is known as the last verse in all the books of Shkyamuni is stated, "When Jesus comes, and my Tao (way) will be like a lamp without oil.

It means that "when Jesus comes, my spiritual enlightenment will become useless like a lamp without oil." It is his statement in his last sermon at the very last moment of his life. It means Shakyamuni was fully aware that his teachings should cease when Jesus comes. For Jesus alone are the way, the truth, and the life (John 14:6). Salvation is found in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given to men by whom we must be saved, Acts 4:12.

This same Buddhist prophecy about Jesus is also found in Japanese Buddhist scriptures of Daisho Shinsoo Tripitaka. This copy, in fact, is the original of the Korean Namada sutra version. It was translated by the renowned Japanese Buddhist priest Sung-gyun of Chin Kingdom from the India Sanskrit and Bali scriptures, and were compared, edited against the Chinese text, and circulated among temple scholars for final approval before printing.

"When Jesus comes, my Tao (way) will be like a lamp without oil" is not just another saying but an actual scripture found in many versions of Buddhist teaching including the firsthand copies of Sanskrit and Bali.

The truth
When I google for 'Ramaka Buddhist Doctrines' and 'Namada sutra', I only found links to Christian websites carrying this same story. This story was created by a Thai Christian, Lers Thisayakorn in 2008 with the title "Last teaching of Lord Buddha in Korean and Japanese Buddhist scriptures". He also wrote a recent article "On defining a true Christian". The first paragraph of this article he wrote,
"Christian can be defined as a person who lives a life Christ like. It can also be defined as a person who follows Christ's teaching in living. These may sound simple and easy. But, in reality, how do we put these definitions into practice? How do we live like Christ or how do we follow His teachings?"
Either he has disqualified himself as a Christian or lying is part of Christ's teaching. Maybe he should change a sentence in that paragraph to "It can also be defined as a person who follows Christ's teaching by lying." It describe best for the lying Christian propaganda.

Lying through his Christian faith, he wrote that Buddha said, "When Jesus comes, my Tao (way) will be like a lamp without oil." Did Buddha know Jesus to have mentioned him? If Buddha taught Tao then Laozi taught what?
 
JESUS PBUH WAS NOT THE MAITHRIYA BUDDHA...

(1) From the study of the four Gospels we can say that Jesus in his lifetime never gave it out that he was the Buddha Maitreya.

(2) The character of Jesus does not display "TEN PERFECTIONS".

(3) The cardinal doctrine of Christianity is that Jesus was "betrayed" into the hands of his enemies who hanged him, and he died upon the cross. The four Gospels are unanimous on the point (Matt. 27: 27; Mark F5: 37; Lu 23: 46; John P 1: 30.). Even Jesus is made to testify to this view (Luke 23:43).

The Christian world must abandon this doctrine first before the Buddhists can consider the advertised claim for being the Buddha Maitreya, for the Buddha

Gautama said: -

"This, O Bhikkhus, is an impossible thing, one that cannot occur that one should deprive a Tathagata of life by violence. The Tathagatas, O Bhikkhus. are extinguished (in death) in due and natural course (Vinaya Text by Max Muller Part III. PP. 246-7.)".

    This is clearly a later addition. Religious texts were written by humans, humans with various interests. Some of them were interested in purity of mind and teaching others the good way of life as they saw it. Some others had more worldly interests, like political power.

    Taoism is a very gentle way of life. I've heard that many people in far east have two religions-one of them being Taoism, because it is a social philosophy of life, rather than a religion. It goes very well with Buddhism, as a general day to day practice though the ultimate goals and fine details of Buddhism is much deeper.

    Far Eastern countries had a different faith in early times: they believed everything that comes from west was evil. This is one reason why the religions that was brought by people travelling along the silk road from west to east, had difficulty rooting down in these countries. In later years, with political power of the west ruling over these countries, like in Sri Lanka, people changed, for social/economic benefit; to survive.

    Then they wrote new books.

    Most information on net reflect the faith of those who provide the information. eg: wikipedia
