add a subforum for posting suttas

add a subforum for posting suttas

Huh?
There's no point in duplicating what's already freely available.

Most of them are already online in decent translations, in which case all you need is a link.
Or do you mean posting suttas and personal commentaries? If so, they would be a good fit for the Theravada Discussion sub-forums.
Or something else?

[Dhammarakkhito]

what i mean is something like this (shameless plug) https://www.facebook.com/groups/490239124693523/
not really a discussion just sharing suttas and/or vinaya, i guess i could use the early buddhism subforum
"dhammic stories" is practically dead, would it be ok if we used that one

[mikenz66]

You mean a kind of "inspiring Buddha quotes" thread?


Mike

[Dhammarakkhito]

sure

[Dhammarakkhito]

oh, well no i dont mean that
not a thread
for one, the buddha is the foundation of our whole religion, or it should be
but also the big huge threads are to me a huge mess, im surely not the only one who believes so
i can just start using shrine room/dhammic sayings/early buddhism the forum could use more topics that are not about debating

[mikenz66]

Sure, posting quotes is fine.

I prefer them in threads, so I know what they are, and can read them, or not, depending on my inclination on the day.

The Thanissaro thread viewtopic.php?f=13&t=13339 for example, would be really annoying if it were a bunch of separate one-post threads. As it is, it is a great resource for Thanissaro fans.
