Despair and Absurdity - Existentialism and Buddhism Probably the most obvious symptom of existentialist philosophers is the constant theory of divergence about the basic features of human life and giving a clear meaning or reason to our existence It is a decided refusal. Therefore, contrary to the idea that criticism calls the movement the nihilism, existentialism prove life with Zen - like reasoning. In particular, Buddhism can gather desperate and absurd concepts from methods that help to understand existential views.
Not being absent is life stagnation, undeveloped unrealized life, escape from life, not an existentialist problem of despair, absurdity, pointlessness, death (Yalom, 1998). Humanity's wisdom as a whole makes people realize that life is possible. Of course, lizards and tigers do not have human self-awareness. This understanding of the limitations and possibilities of freedom of life is a different reason for humans. "Humanity is such a special existence, he knows that he is not at some point in the future; he is always in a dialectical relationship between being absent and death. Yes, his own By choice, mink my presence and give up "(May 1958, page 42)

The core concept at the early stages of Albert Camus' thought was absurd. This confrontation is irrational, despairing but profound human wishes can understand our situation. The proper response to this situation is to fully understand it. Through "rebellion" (in the early stages of thought), coronation means to despise the miserable truth of human condition. Once again, absurd understanding releases us from customs and customs. We will see all again and be released in our mind. Through "passion", crown is not to escape from absurd emotions, but to resolve to live as strongly as possible to face it in an absolutely cool way. The way to do this is not to maximize the number of experiences, but to maximize quality.

Lastly argued, existentialism is based on what is stupid. It is a concept developed by the coronation ceremony. Absurd means the uselessness of modern life. As a concept of existentialism, it refers to the universe which has no essential meaning, and in this universe individuals must strive to create meaning for themselves. If things are ridiculous, that is absolutely irrational, irrational, and consistent with expectations. Absurdity represents a meaningless and illogical effort to pursue meaning and purpose in an objective and indifferent world (Burnham & Papandreopoulos, 2012; Rohmann, 1999). An example is the accumulation of too much wealth, in the face of some kind of death. "Time has impaired our achievement, death cut our plan" (Rohmann, 1999, p. 128). The absurdity of existence assumes that "human beings as actions are destined to destroy themselves forever" (Burnham & Papandreopoulos, 2012, page 8)
