Nagarjuna was fun by about the fifth time through reading his texts. It took awhile for his ideas to penetrate.Teresahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12831169405732892599noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3607441034503290367.post-73646325113235643172010-12-11T09:29:51.708-08:002010-12-11T09:29:51.708-08:00Nice pulse taking, Teresa.
