The Buddha with dependent origination. I think it says somewhere that most of the stuff in Buddhism was from before the Buddha’s time. These are things such as breath-based practices and loving kindness, among others. He had one revelation that made the entire enlightenment thing basically which is called dependent origination.*
*At least according to my meditation teacher, I believe him since he was a neuroscientist and astrophysics masters at Berkeley before he left for India though so he’s got some pretty good epistemics.
It basically states that any system is only true based on another system being true. It has some really cool parallels to Gödel’s Incompleteness Theorem but on a metaphysical level. Emptiness of emptiness and stuff. (On a side note I can recommend TMI + Seeing That Frees if you want to experience som radical shit there.)
