Thank you for this explanation. It was very insightful.

Of all the hundreds of speeches and texts about Buddhism I’ve encountered, this is the first and only that is fully translated into English, and thus fully understandable. Why do we have to *suffer* duka and dharma? Leaving terms untranslated is like writing an email and not hitting send. So I very much appreciate you Alan, for your sincerity in teaching us with the aim of helping us understand instead of fluffing your own pants with bombastic verbosity. I hope other self appointed “teachers” take the hint and quit using pretentious dead languages when taliking to real live people. Great lesson!

Amazing. So simple and straightforward and easy to understand. Thank you!

So well presented, clear understandable the first time I think I understand how Buddhism structured. Very well done.

Currently reading a very informative book The Heart of the Buddha's Teaching by Thich Nhat Hanh. Thank you Alan for an easy to understand synopsis of Buddhism. Looking forward to hearing more from you.🙏💖
