thanks, its great so far. just from the 2 opening remarks of Huntington and Garfield we are presented with 2 meaningful ways of analyzing reason/conceptuality and nonconceptuality

From reading the title of this thread I thought it was going to be about Tilt's summation of the hardcore dharma thread....

Great title, Tilt!
I'm with Nana and Ian here--that thread wore me out.

Stuck in Samsara, mired in Dukkha, pointlessly arguing about something that can never be known.
