[edit] Neutrality

I have made some edits to give an impression that Zanabazar's recognition as Javzandamba was probably not entirely about spiritual matters. However, I think I might have taken it a bit far, i.e. the whole connection to politics seems to be largely an inference by modern historians (a very very obvious one, though), and maybe this should be pointed out. Also, I guess there was also a spiritual dimension to it, which I may have neglected. Yaan 18:59, 1 November 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Bogdo Zanabazar

Mongolian "bogdo" (traditonal), "bogd" (modern) means "holy", and here is likelier a title rather than part of his name. Anthony Appleyard 22:27, 11 November 2007 (UTC)
