@阿布 ,English is never the good means for me to discuss on such a topic, anyway I will have a try now that the question was brought about by you in English.
I have spent some time on Buddhism and Zen before, I am sure I have understood those sutras correctly, and I am even not sure which one among those sutras I have read is the real scriptures orated by Buddha himself and which one is so-called false sutras, I believe you know the disputes on this issue between so-called xiaocheng(small vehicle) and dacheng(big vehicle), but I am almost sure that the current religion systems of the Buddhism, including various sects, believes, ceremonies, disciplines, rules... were created and perfected continuously by the followers in the past two thousands years, not by Buddha himself. Maybe the five-poison rule was an effective method for some particular sects of Buddhism in the past to keep their members in conformity and imitation, but it was, is and will be never a good rule to help us to find out the truth.
One of the advantages of K’s teaching, compared with Buddhism Sutras and Laozi, etc, is that K’s full ranges of text, audio and video data are available and kept genuine although sometimes the texts are edited a little bit. Anyway, K always encourage us to doubt and clear away all our attachment to any outer and inner authorities in order to get ultimate freedom and find out the truth. It is only in this sense that there is almost no difference between the teachings of Buddha, Laozi, K and any other well-known or unknown persons of true wisdom.
I agree with @理明信深 and @瑞雪兆丰年 on this topic.

过去在网络论坛经历、见证了太多的大辩论,所以现在我对辩论有点儿敏感,或者说得高大上,有点儿觉察力。比如,我指出别人的错误,对方立场上感受到威胁,此时就有了二元对峙,是两种成见、定论“附体”在两个人内心,开始较劲,此时已经有克所说的“暴力”了。我说别人错误,可能只是为了证明自己所代表的定论、立场是正确的。我若感受到对方的攻势,只是那个定论与立场为我提供的安全感不够了,我就得搬出更多武器,加固我的安全感。此时,伤面子,诉诸情绪,甚至不理他,退群……都是自我疗伤修复安全感的常用方式。
克从来不这样,克告诉我们如何去觉察自己所执迷沉醉的安全感,去觉察安全感所掩饰的内在恐惧……

喜欢@Irene 的例子。觉察就是在日常生活中时时省察自己,而不是在课堂上在静坐时。比如,如果哪天我跟阿布在群里争论起来了,伤了和气、面子,我有点儿讨厌阿布。此时,克的书告诉我,原来此时阿布是我的一面明镜,照见了我内心隐秘的定论成见,照见了这定论罩着我给我的温暖与安全,照见了阿布这小子试图粉碎我的壁垒给我带来的恐惧,照见了我的回击欲,照见了……我与阿布这层萍水之缘,就成了我的一面宝镜。
怎么样?阿布,哪天我们吵一架?

我把他们相提并论,本身就是错的,所以才引发这些疑问。文献的真伪,是个解决不了的问题,即便从通常的学术角度也没法类比。其次,也是最关键的,智慧究竟处,是没有分别、比较与拣择的。
比如,我学老,同时又去佛家、克这里寻求比较、印证,一旦找到共同点,就大喜并宣称:你们看看,佛啊克啊其实在俺家宝藏里都有!这其实是用来旁证自己的“执”是对的。当我没有这层心执,就不需要外人的证明。
类似,给佛老克三位按照梁山泊或隋唐好汉排座次的方式,弄个排行榜,也只是我们分别心的游戏,说明我当前最看重的还不是智慧,而是寻找外在权威,站到他的麾下,来获得能量加持。他们留下的文字,无论真伪,其实都不是圭臬,只是一面镜子,照见我自己的内心,让我看清我的真面目,让我深度觉察自己。至于说,哪面镜子更亮?这取决于我们戴了什么样的有色眼镜。如果我们没有戴滤镜,则生活中处处是明镜,未必非得麻烦他们三位。
