Brett, in Gautama Buddha
But Brett does have Buddha-nature ... or does he? :) Zora 09:27, 6 October 2006 (UTC)
- This whole question of Buddha-nature and dogs is a vexing one. The cow connection (MOO) is also suspicious. Zora 09:36, 6 October 2006 (UTC)
Re: my question about Layman Pang
Fantastic! Thanks for the first-class education. (And I'm jealous of your ability to use Chinese character sets.) Would you feel comfortable cutting and pasting your explanation of "Layman" somewhere at Householder (Buddhism)#Mahayana perspectives? (Of, if you prefer, I'd be glad to cut-and-paste and attribute the edited content to you.)
I'm beginning to get the impression that I'm tilting at windmills in my search to differentiate between "householder" and "layperson." If there wasn't already an article on upasaka, I'd be inclined to include all the Pali references to householders and laity in one article. (Maybe I should move "Householder (Buddhism)" material to "Upasaka"??) Regardless, I get the sense that you are likely right about there being less of a distinction outside of the Indian ashrama and caste systems. Because of this, in the "Mahayana perspectives" section of the "Householder (Buddhism)" article, I appreciate and admire any information regarding Mahayana laity. (Perhaps the whole article should be moved to "Laity (Buddhism)" with a redirect from "Householder (Buddhism)"?)
In short: THANKS again for the terrific lesson on the Chinese term "layman"; and, please insert it in the Householder (Buddhism) article, if you are so inclined. Best wishes, LarryR 17:38, 6 October 2006 (UTC)
- Hey Saposcat - Thanks for the additional dazzling (though humble) erudition, kind encouragement and sage advice. It's interesting to see that the Buddhist layman/householder distinction, if any, might be cross-cultural. To paraphrase a Pali chant: With my head I bow before your supreme foot dust. (Perhaps I should have run that through a translation tool.) Thanks again, LarryR 22:43, 6 October 2006 (UTC)

On 7 October, 2006, Did you know? was updated with a fact from the article Layman Pang, which you created. If you know of another interesting fact from a recently created article, then please suggest it on the "Did you know?" talk page. |
Contribute to Turkey article?
Hi Saposcat, i remember the great job you did with Turkish literature and was wondering if you could perhaps add a paragraph dealing with Turkish literature to the Culture section of the Turkey article. There is an effort at the moment to try and get it to FA status and any contribution you could make would be appreciated. Thanks, --A.Garnet 12:55, 7 October 2006 (UTC)

- P.S. Belated congrats on the DYK spotlight on Layman Pang!
Ottoman names of Istanbul
Hi, I noticed you are one of the few people who declare a knowledge of Ottoman Turkish in their Babel boxes. We might need some help for the Names of Istanbul article, about when which names were in use by the Ottomans. In particular:
- When did "Istanbul" originate, when is it first attested, when did it enter official usage? (i.e. prior to the official "renaming" in 1930).
- When and where did "Kostantiniyye" originate, when and how was it used?
- When and how did "Islambol" originate, when was it in official usage?
- What was the role of expressions like "Dersaadet", "Bab-i Ali" etc. - also names of the city, or purely metonymies for the Ottoman authorities?
Any help appreciated! Fut.Perf. ☼ 06:47, 15 October 2006 (UTC)
