the complete MN majjhima nikaya english sutta translations, based off of B. Sujato's translations form suttacentral, have completely expunged his erroneous vitakka and jhana formula translations. Let me know if I missed any.
2. I've looked at every single vitakka usage in the pali suttas over the years. Audited
every.
single.
last.
But now I'm documenting it and organizing the audit so everything is easy to see for yourself, impossible to ignore the evidence when it's a simple hyperlink click away. I've just completed MN.
https://notesonthedhamma.blogspot.com/2 ... ttas.html65 suttas out of 152 in MN majjihima nikaya reference vitakka.
The table of contents here, but you'll want to read it from the blog article since they all hyperlink to the relevant excerpt, and also contain links to the full sutta.
You're welcome.
And a personal message to Jhana vitakka heretics: I'm going through all the pali suttas, not just MN, until every single reference to vitakka is audited. Vitakka heretics will have nowhere to run, nowhere to hide, no alibi, no excuses. Documented audits will be a single hyperlink click away. You are going down. Down like the hindenberg. The longer you take to repent and admit error, the worse it's going to be. So rip off the bandaid now. You're going to take a hit to your reputation and pride, but it's going to be far worse, exponentially worse the longer you wait.
