Shouldn't the table go Sanskrit-Chinese-Korean-Japanese? -- कुक्कुरोवाच|Talk‽ 22:46, 16 Sep 2004 (UTC)
A request dor someone to write a seperate page on Jhana, which is now just a redirect to dhyana. --81.153.184.207 23:17, 9 May 2005 (UTC)

- Well, synonymy across languages and across sects is kind of tricky, but I think the ultimate point is that they should be in the same article. Unless we're talking about some *other* jhana. -- कुक्कुरोवाच|Talk‽ 15:00, 15 May 2005 (UTC)
Hi, the main article on Buddhist jhana is good, though could do with some expansion to show how jhana fits in the path, as suggested by the end comment on psychic powers. But i am worried by the external links, which for the most part point to highly idiosyncratic interpretations of jhana; the Dhammakaya link doesn't even talk about jhana directly. I think these links should point to places that expand and give details on the mainstream understanding of jhana as explained in the article itself. Sujato
[edit] Article name
Hello, shouldn't the name of the article be Dhyāna so that Dhyana would redirect there and not vice versa? With the macron the transcription of the term is more precise and correct. -Oghmoir 09:10, 22 October 2006 (UTC)
- There doesn't seem to be any firmly established convention.Sylvain1972 17:34, 9 February 2007 (UTC)
