charges made by individuals such as yourself in the abovecited. In answer, I do not have a religion and I do not have a position. You are just wrong and your attribution unfounded. Don't project your seduction by opinions and false charges of original research onto me. Where is your evidence? The grand synthesis I made reference to is about an encycopedic, historical, developmental and inclusive exploration of the technical term "sentient beings", you wantonly misunderstood.

I am somewhat at a loss here, and will have to think about this a bit before commenting at any length. But... B9, to address your question, the discussion that

The material on Buddha nature in East Asian
