  11. …Notice the suttas DON'T begin with 'Thus have I heard FROM ĀNANDA', just 'Thus have I heard'. Later prose authors could have been referring to the oral tradition in general, and made up the story of Ānanda's reciting the entire Canon, in order to legitimise the very long texts they wrote.

  16. …The many long suttas, lists, and miracles, in the Pāli Canon, were probably composed, based on the early poetry and oral tradition, by a group of prose authors, sooner or later after Buddha's final passing, who were institutionalising Buddhism to compete with Hinduism, Jainism, Ājīvika, etc.

  18. …Compared to the prose suttas, those poems present Buddha as a more human, ascetic, solitary sage (muni) who abandons ALL views; who doesn't study under Āḷāra and Uddaka; doesn't do a life-long lecture tour; skips the arūpajhāna level of neither-perception-nor-nonperception; and other interesting differences. Give them a read.

  23. Let go of the past,
    let go of the future,
    let go of the present, and
    cross over to the farther shore of existence.

    With mind wholly liberated,
    you shall come no more to birth and death.
    ~Dhammapada 348

  29. “This is what the Buddha was referring to when he said: ‘The world is wanting, insatiable, the slave of craving.’ And it was after knowing and seeing and hearing this that I went forth from the lay life to homelessness.”
