[Buddha-l] Re. Pali Sutta

[jkirk]

It's this as much as anything that shows the flaws in your
anti-metaphysical ideology. It lacks something; it lacks heart.
It also lacks exemplars. I think this is why you have struggled
to convince people to follow you. 

But best of luck with it. 
Jayarava
======================
It is systems, as well as some people, that lack heart, in my
experience anyway. 
Metaphysical ontologies also lack heart, while mystical ones do
seem to
motivate. As for exemplars, women and men of virtues-- such as
honesty, patience, kindness, equanimity, right-livelihood, and
the rest don't seem to be widely collected 
across any of these platforms, including legacy Buddhist ones.
