After all these years, I finally saw the Rubin Museum and loved it! I especially liked the show “death is not the end,” I highly recommend it

Just learned of a great opportunity for students at Big Ten schools to take first-year Sanskrit online (via CourseShare) with one of the best in the biz, Andrew Ollett (UChicago)! First quarter starts Sep. 25. You can check out his fabulous course website here: prakrit.info/vrddhi/ AncientBluesky

I've had it with the bird site, but didn't want to lose my research tweets, especially the Medieval Buddhist of the Day series. So I built an archive site, where future posts can also live, to be linked here or wherever. So, with a strong feeling of déjà vu: welcome to my blog.

Looking to connect with those interested in Buddhist art, Buddhist Studies & Tibetan and Himalayan Studies, and digital humanities & art history more broadly. Hoping to reel you in with this smiling Wangchuk Drak
