White lotus, red turbans, black flags: revolutionary buddhist heretics
from No Selves, No Masters
Hello, my patient readers. Believe it or not, the work continues behind the scenes. Among other things, I have been interested in revisiting the pre-modern historical roots of Buddhist Anarchism. This is because I have clarified my historiographical methods. Instead of searching for analogues of Anarchism in the distant past long before it was developed I will look for its ancestors. This helps us avoid anachronism and the pitfalls of projecting modern ideologies onto the people of the past.
