He said that women should be confined to the house and not be taught Buddhism.

"[If] women go forth from the household life, then the rule of Dharma (religion) will not be maintaned over a long period"

He told women:

“This [your] body is a SWAMP OF GARBAGE, an INFECTIOUS HEAP OF IMPURITIES. How can anybody take pleasure in such wandering LATRINES?”

Further, he told his followers:

- “One would sooner chat with demons and murderers with drawn swords, sooner touch poisonous snakes even when their bite is deadly, than chat with a woman alone”
- “It were better, simpleton, that your sex enter the mouth of a poisonous snake than that it enter a woman. It were better, simpleton, that your sex enter an oven than that it enter a woman”
- But the danger of the shark, is a characteristic of woman"

In abhorrence for women, he composed the following:

"Those are not wise
Act like animals
Racing toward female forms
Like hogs toward mud
……………….
Because of their ignorance
They re bewildered by women, who
Like profit seekers in the marketplace
Deceive those who come near"

Central to Buddha's teachings, is the destruction of the feminine principle, which is the root of all troubles. One is only reborn as a woman if one accumulates bad karma in one's life. One Buddhist scripture states that the female “should hate her impure body like a jail in which she is imprisoned, like a cesspool into which she has fallen”

I wasn’t a believer in karma till last night. I always saw karma as just something to say to yourself to make yourself feel better for a misfortune done to you.

Anyway, long story short, I got my own karma last night in a Video game. I was basically cheating in the game online a few weeks ago and yesterday night, someone did the exact same thing to me. I was pretty angry at first but then quickly remembered that I did the same thing to someone else a few weeks ago. I instantly became a believer in karma. There’s just no way it could’ve happened to me like this by chance. I hardly ever play this game and this cheat is very rare.
