...Buddha was done during his own lifetime. He had "arrived at complete Enlightenment* and ascended into Heaven to preach the Law for the benefit of his mother," but after about three months he returned to earth to find that his friend Udayana, King of Kausambi, an ancient realm in India, had ordered a statue made of him in sandalwood...

The bizarre consequences of the Hegelian system when applied to brute Anglo-American "facts" tend to vanish in the realm of pure sensation. Hegel really "makes sense" in this pre-rational area; his work appears expressly designed for dealing with pure experience...
