Venerable Bhante, Dear Robert,
I like the article Robert gave the link of. I agree with Bhante that just
study is not enough, it must serve the purpose of developing right
understanding, going on to pativedha. Even when we are engrossed in details
of the Pali language we still should have our goal in mind.
Nina.
