@bryankam @worldofgeese let me pause and think.

I don't want to cling to the argument, I need to grasp it first 😉

Can you elaborate what your claim is?

You seem to be mapping the into a development model of human cognition, and you use this passage of this to support this projection.

What is the claim here? (That it explains the 12 factors better? That it was there all along?)

And what teachings unfold from this claim? (what are the consequences for practice?)

I think I just want to really live in a place and time where you can just walk up to someone and say, "Greetings! Are aging-&-death self-made, or other-made, or both, or neither?"

I might have found it, SN 12:46 dhammatalks.org/suttas/SN/SN12 I liked the idea of a few friendly greetings then just straight into dependent origination

Can someone help me locate this quote? What sutta is this from?

Piyadassi Thera mentions it but I couldn't find a direct reference.

A friend thought it might be Kamma Vibhanga Sutta but I couldn't find it there.

@krishnadeltoso @philosophy @philosophyofreligion Thanks! Really useful Krishna.

This passage from a different writer also implies a circularity between viññāṇa and nāmarūpa? Though I have to be honest, this is a bit over my head. If you could explain I would be very grateful!

The great thing about reading old books/papers is that if you start far back enough, you don't have to wait for new stuff to come out — you can just read the person's next work!

Yesterday read E. Shulman's excellent 2008 paper on Early Meanings of Dependent Origination link.springer.com/article/10.1

And now I see he published a book in 2014, called Rethinking the Buddha. Excellent news!
