But it may well be that some of what we understand as "the Dhamma" could beneficially be challenged
hi Dave

your point above is irrelevent

Dhamma is something to be realised

Realisation cannot be challenged

Please take care



There are here, O monks, some foolish men who study the Teaching; having studied it, they do not wisely examine the purpose of those teachings. To those who do not wisely examine the purpose, these teachings will not yield insight. They study the Teaching only to use it for criticizing or for refuting others in disputation. They do not experience the (true) purpose for which they (ought to) study the Teaching. To them these teachings wrongly grasped, will bring harm and suffering for a long time. And why? Because of their wrong grasp of the teachings.
