western spiritual traditions are farcical, and show no curiosity whatsoever into the various types of religious experience or other anomalous mental states. like the various types of Buddhism have whole lexicons and conceptual maps of all kinds of specific features of consciousness, whereas Christians merely justify whatever whim or gut feeling they have by attributing it to Jesus or God or An Angel and if you do anything like 'meditation' they think you are a satanist or a victim of satanist propaganda. so in typical angloid fashion we steal whatever terms from other cultures we deem useful and forget the entire context or origin or purpose of the concepts we steal.
TL:DR it would be weird to say 'seventh day adventism-like' because there is no specific meditative or mental practices associated with that religious tradition, as whitoids are soulless ice mutant people with primitive barbaric cultures that revolve purely around colonialism (theft) and warfare. the angloid brainpan is incapable of the advanced thought required for spiritual pursuits or even complicated philosophical investigation.
not quite true, we are more than capable of complicated philosophical investigation, as long as it never gets anywhere or actually helps anyone. The moment you suggest something even remotely practicable you will be eliminated.
philosophy: maybe we should think about stuff sometimes, like fundamental questions concerning rationality and knowledge and reality
westoids: ogey
westoids: writes nothing but apologia for the status quo
philosophy: westoids, how could you possibly think that's what i mea-
westoids: another certified ~~banger~~imperialism
philosophy is when a big strong man came and said "no more wokeism" and that was philosophy
