[Buddha-l] Anniversaries

[bob Woolery]

On another list, the assertion was made that nibbana literally means
coolness.  If so, the metaphorical effort to "be cool" is much older than I
had known, and nibbana more understandable.
  That niroda, among its other meanings, denotes condom, brought new
understanding to the firstwords of the YogaSutras.

   Or am I badly in the weeds?

I think if you'll look back through the archives, you'll see that several
exchanges have been larger. Technical discussions are rather important for
those of use who make extensive use of Asian languages, and we benefit by
sharing information with each other. 

Anyone who wishes to start a discussion on any other topic connected with
Buddhism or Buddhist studies is welcome to do so.
