Thank you buttons

[seniya]

No, Asoka is not a cakkavatti (ruler of the world), but dipacakkavatti (ruler of the continent, i.e Jambudipa or continent of west):

Hi Seniya,
how about this, i found at Dīpavaṃsa :
asokadhammo ‘bhisitto paṭiladdhā ca iddhiyo, mahātejo puññavanto dīpe cakkapavattako [asokadhamma, after his coronation, obtained the miraculous faculties; exceedingly splendid and rich in meritorious works (he was), universal monarch of Jambudīpa]- Dīp vi,23

mettacittena,

Thx for the info....

Btw, why this forum doesn't have Thank you button like other forums????

This is a mod that can be added to the forums if the owner wishes:

No thanks, it is our policy right now to not have thank you buttons, thumbs-up buttons, etc.

For some (not all) it might end up being a competition and another chance to feed the ego.

Thanks for the suggestion, but for now we will not be adopting that one.

One could still post the smilie: once in a while when there is a post that one is especially fond of or of course thanking someone for some good info.

Greetings,

And there definitely won't be a "karma" function to enable members to smite each other!

Metta,
Retro.

[Euclid]

If you wish to show somebody gratitude, you can always just post your thanks, or even privately message them.

Ok, thx for the attention....

I understand the policy of this forum....
