Hear hear! This is the trouble with Buddhism:
First you need to read a lot of discourses, then you feel you aren’t quite understanding them in English so you need to learn Pali, then it’s Chinese to compare parallels, then it’s Tibetan, in the meantime you’ve picked up a bit of Sanskrit - and in every one of these languages there’s more written material than you could read in a lifetime - then there’s the Western Philosophy you need to be conversant in to explain or understand things in western terms, then there’s psychology and cognitive science… honestly seems like no one could possibly understand Buddhism at all! That’s what has led me to the EBT’s tbh, having a corpus that might actually be manageable enough that I don’t have to spend several rebirths reading
