Tibetan as Nondual

...the editor of a collection of essays on ecocriticism wants me to justify some arguments I make about Tibetan as a language designed to handle nondual concepts by Buddhists. Luckily Tony Duff alerted me to his recently published Tibetan grammar, which I was happy to buy, though my oh my it set me back a pretty penny: $120! Now that's what I call suffering for my art!

I'll let you know what it says. My essay is on ecology and deconstruction. I'm arguing that grammar is already a kind of fossilized metaphysics.
