MY IDOL DR. GEORG GRIMM
„early Buddhist“ and reawakener of the TRUE Doctrine of the Buddha.
I wish the Dalai Lama would read this and abandon his false path. Why? Klick here
A.P. Buddhadatta, the well known Sinhalese Pali scholar and head
of the Aggarama at Ambalangoda in Ceylon (appointed as the Agga-
Mahapandita at the Council of Rangoon) wrote on 4th March 1947
concerning the English
edition of George Grimm's main work in a letter to his daughter:" I
read that book [DOCTRINE OF THE BUDDHA by George Grimm] , and (found
it to be) as you have stated in your letter that 'he (Grimm) recovered
of the old
genuine doctrine of the Buddha which had beenSUBMERGED. When we
(Theravada) read our Pali texts (Abhidhamma) and commentaries
(Buddhaghosa, Vishudhamagga), we get the idea that Buddhism is a sort
of Nihilism....Thus I
was puzzled for a long time to understand the true meaning of
Buddhism though I was born a Buddhist. Many peoples do not go so far
in these matters (of doctrine)."
