Informative, eye opening and FRISKY! I've developed a strong 'hawas' for 'ilm (history, religion, poetry, lingustics) and, judging by my current state, it'll only inflame from now on, rendering me mentally invalid and crazy VERY soon. Anyways, more about this book, it's challenging to read. Very difficult vocab. Like how am I suposed to know what words like soteriology, transubstantion, acculturation etc. mean !? XD

ہوں گرفتارِ کمیں گاہِ تغافل کہ جہاں

just a fancy way to say the poet is a (fake/pretending to be?) ignorant and wants to remain so since the state of ignorance is blissful.
Anyhow, Buddhism seems like an interesting religion. In fact it's a religion of no-religion. 🤲 Khuda jaanay Ashbar kahan hoga in 5 years
