Fake or Real Buddhism | 2023
Update: 2025-07-04
Description
Ajahn Brahmali discusses how to distinguish authentic Buddhist teachings from those that may be misrepresentations, diluted, or adapted in ways that stray from the original Dhamma.
He mentions that real Dhamma teachings should lead to peace, renunciation, contentment, and letting go. These teachings emphasize non-attachment, simplicity, morality, and wisdom.
If a teaching supports ego, acquisition, or sensual indulgence, it’s likely inauthentic.
