@Vimala Is there a thread to highlight typos in the new translation? If not …
If there were no escape from the eye, sentient beings wouldn’t love it. But because there is an escape from the eye, sentient beings do escape from it.

No there isn’t so yes, please let us know if you find something.
Best is to tag @Sujato in on it so he can tell the proofreaders.

Hey guys, thanks so much. But to be honest I’d rather hold off on the corrections for the time being.
Proofreading is ongoing, I currently have 481 suggestions to review, and there will be many more.
The “final” double-checked version will be online in a month or two, and that would be a great time to hear from you. Otherwise we’ll just be doubling up on most of these things.
