> Here we report data supporting the broader claim that shame is a basic part of human biology.
> We conducted an experiment among 899 participants in 15 small-scale communities scattered around the world.
> Despite widely varying languages, cultures, and subsistence modes, shame in each community closely tracked the devaluation of local audiences (mean r = +0.84).
> The fact that the same pattern is encountered in such mutually remote communities suggests that shame's match to audience devaluation is a design feature crafted by selection and not a product of cultural contact or convergent cultural evolution.

> This paper studies the ways that Walker, a short film by the Malaysian-Taiwanese auteur Tsai Ming-Liang, visualizes the relationship between Buddhism and modernity.

> Formerly, Anurādha, and also now, I teach just suffering and the cessation of suffering.
Venerable Anurādha is questioned by a number of ascetics, and ends up by saying that the Realized One is described in terms other than “existing after death” and so on. The wanderers say he’s a fool, so he checks with the Buddha, who says that a Realized One is not even apprehended in this life, so how can he be described after death?

[Ven. Sunyo on D&D](https://discourse.suttacentral.net/t/i-declare-only-suffering-and-its-cessation-the-buddha-indeed/31825?u=khemarato.bhikkhu) makes a compelling argument that the Buddha's final statement here is meant categorically, not pedagogically.

- A Bhikkhu threatens to leave the Order unless the Buddha answers his metaphysical questions. With the simile of a man struck by a poisoned arrow, the Buddha makes plain exactly what he does not teach in this sutta mentioned in Bhikkhu Bodhi’s talk below.

Last week we learned about Buddhist cosmology, while these suttas seem to eschew metaphysics. What gives? How do you explain this seeming contradiction?
