lucid24.org sutta quick link feature

from  lucid24.org homepage

The quick link feature is on the line under the Sutta nikāya menu.

It allows you to pull up a book/sutta from an input such as "MN 17" by typing it in with the keyboard without having to navigate through menus without using mouse/touch screen.

1. Using keyboard, type a book and number into the input box (where it currently has default value of  'mn125').

2. Enter 'return' on the keyboard and it will load up the book.

3. Book/Sutta  should now be open a new tab of the browser window.

 The sutta quick link you type in with your keyboard:

1)  Is not case sensitive

2)  not sensitive about extra white spaces at beginning or ending of the input line.

3) not sensitive about white space between nikāya and sutta number. Both "mn 17" and "mn17" work.

My thoughts on Dalai Lama kissing boy, and the solution

HHDL = His holiness, the Dalai Lama I've collected good references here, including the actual video, and snippets from forums discussions containing valid critcism and explanations of cultural context, and most importantly, what the rules of the actual vinaya that buddhist monks are supposed to follow: 1min. video: Dalai Lama kissing boy and asking him to suck his tongue At the time of this writing, HHDL is about 88 years old. He has an exemplary record devoting his life to compassionate service to all living beings,  as a Tibetan Buddhist monk. In this age of 'me too',  everyone with a cell phone with high resolution cameras, and the ability to quickly publicize any indiscretion or sexual crime, we've seen sexual predators in positions of power being exposed and convicted. Leaders of large corporations,  governments, professional sports, doctors, leaders in all religions. Tibetan Buddhism has an especially poor track record with corrupt sexual predators. https://thewal...

One night, a certain Buddha, accompanied by tens of thousands of Arahant disciples, came to visit; the next night, he was visited by another Buddha who was accompanied by hundreds of thousands of Arahant disciples. Each night a different Buddha came to express his appreciation, accompanied by a different number of Arahant disciples. Ãcariya Mun stated that the number of accompanying Arahant disciples varied according to each Buddha’s relative accumulation of merit – a factor that differed from one Buddha to the next. Many critics cite that passa...
