Reading

• Re-read Birgit's exposition on the 6 points; started reading her new version that she sent me around noon.
• Read lots and lots of emails. Normally I wouldn't put this as a bullet point, but for some reason, a lot of content-filled emails arrived in my academic inbox over the weekend, and it was a significant part of the day going through them.
• Began reading Oetke, "Two Investigations on the Madhyamakakarikas and the Vigrahavyavartani", focusing mostly on S. 2 of the section on the Vigrahavyavartani, and utterly skipping the material on the Madhyamakakarikas.

Writing

• Notes for Lumbini presentation on the basis of my re-reading of Birgit's paper.
