Got a ? Finding that books with fancier diacritics do not display correctly, for example in books about that use or in transliteration?

There is a fix! Download Gentium Plus here: software.sil.org/gentium/downl

Then move the .ttf files into a folder named "fonts" in your Kobo. Then add the Gentium fonts in the Supplemental section of the font menu, and select Gentium as your Font Face. Bam! Working extended diacritical marks.

Tiny linguistic triumph today: Noticed an inconsistency in a verse: "Tanhaya japati soko, tanhaya jayati bhayam" meaning "Craving begets sorrow, craving begets fear." Realized it should be 'jayati' in both instances, and indeed, other sources confirmed it. Caught a typo? tipitaka.net/tipitaka/dhp/vers

Voici notre dernière traduction publiée sur SuttaCentral: Saddhasutta, où le Bouddha dit au Vénérable Sandha de méditer comme un pur-sang entraîné, et non comme un poulain sauvage. En agissant ainsi, il peut atteindre un état profond de méditation.

Another way of talking about āyatana meditations:

Q. Nissaṭṭhena hāvuso, pañcahi indriyehi parisuddhena manoviññāṇena kiṃ neyyan ti?

Nissaṭṭhena pañcahi indriyehi
"By dismissing the five sense faculties..."

A. ‘ananto ākāso’ti ākāsānañcāyatanaṃ neyyaṃ, ‘anantaṃ viññāṇa’nti viññāṇañcāyatanaṃ neyyaṃ, ‘natthi kiñcī’ti ākiñcaññāyatanaṃ neyya’’nti.

Only in Mahāvedalla Sutta (MN 43). A non-Theravādin Pāḷi text.
