The two female profs both made clear that their info about Asoka was from unreliable Buddhist material (referring to it more than once as "legends"). Gombrich merely underscored this, being slightly arrogant, as usual, about the matter.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02403455403717824541noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1012277645322483593.post-91049613661499038342015-03-19T13:11:23.797-07:002015-03-19T13:11:23.797-07:00This comment has been removed by the author.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02403455403717824541noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1012277645322483593.post-12740314736492276782015-03-03T16:57:33.605-08:002015-03-03T16:57:33.605-08:00Dear Unknown, thanks for the accolades.

In fact, the unconceivably precious Buddhadhamma is brighter than commonly presented by Theravada. Also, the Dhamma is not supposed to lead to morbid (yet subtly veiled) aversion, but to joyful dispassion and truly compassionate liberation. You made it possible for me to see this, I'm deeply thankful!!<br /><br />Thank you for the insights on meat eating, LGBT issues and love too. And, of course, the musings. Your writings led me to a deeper understanding of the Teachings of the Great Hero of the World, and enriched my practice greatly.<br /><br />May you dwell in the Pure Abodes! May your happiness know no limits! May we all delight in sublime peace! Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
