it is enough stratospheric. I congratulate you. Of course I don't have
remote idea. Anyway, many people use the weak historical evidence
inside religions as another tool to attack their contents.
However, I celebrate that they are surrounded with myths and
confusion. In this way they are not an static episode in the Time
but we can use our imagination to open new doors and meanings.

Well, I'm not so ambitious. My preferred delirium this year it's the
destiny of the bhikkhuni Sangha and their leaders. I doubt if would be
the root for the later arising of Mahayana.
