Struggling with the Pali Canon
I really just wanted to get this off my chest, I'm really struggling with the linguistic structure of the Pali Canon, not the ideas themselves, I can quite easily - at least intellectually have some understanding of them,iIts just I find the linguistic structure - namely the repetitions hard going. I had the idea that they were stuctured this way in order to help them be remembered when they were transmitted orally, but still I'm finding it tough.
