All is suffering. The rest is the attempt to distract from suffering.
And in spite of having access to far more than the libraries of Nalanda
and Alexandria (with notable exceptions), students still persist in not
learning! We do what we can, when not sacking libraries.  I do keep a
copy of the Koran in my library (even though it is the Penguin edition)
just to keep it from being burned down.
