Hm, ok, thanks. I don’t I fully understand+believe your claims. For one thing, I would guess that many people do think and act, under the title “Buddhism”, as if they believe that desire is the cause of suffering.
If I instead said “Clinging/Striving is the cause of [painful wheel-spinning in pursuit of something missing]”, is that any closer? (This doesn’t really fit what I’m seeing in the Wiki pages.) I would also say that decompiling clinging/striving in order to avoid [painful wheel-spinning in pursuit of something missing] is tantamount to nihilism. (But maybe to learn what you’re offering I’d have to do more than just glance at the Wiki pages.)
