Greetings Will, However, if one must fulfill the 'connection' requirement, Theravada & Mahayana share the same fourfold series of time cycles from the Sramana tradition. Therefor the 'connection' is that the yuga cycles & the Buddhist cycles both are fourfold & both are endless cycles & both have up...

Greetings Will, As I mentioned in a previous post I have not seen anything brought here that shows a connection between kali yuga and theravada. Is there one?.....and if so can you describe it? chownah The second sentence describing this Connections forum says: "What can we learn from other traditio...

Greetings mettafuture, Have you attempted similar reconciliations? No, and I have often seen people misrepresent and misunderstand the teachings by making false comparisons to nature. For example, this is how "dependent origination" comes to be misunderstood in some quarters as an interconnection be...

Greetings Sarath, Now you are contradicting yourself. That means they are busy. I suspect Ajahn Brahm is far more "in demand" than your average run-of-the-mill bhikkhu, so has a lot more avenues and opportunities by which to take on (and potentially over-commit to) distracting engagements.
