Separation of church and state
I think it's valuable to consider examples where Buddhism and Statehood were not separated. Tibet's longstanding Feudalistic society with Monastic power is a history we don't want to repeat.Badabara (talk) 05:20, 26 April 2020 (UTC)

restructuring for readability
I made changes to the page. Restructured categories and edited grammar to make the page concise and readable. Let me know if there are changes I made that you don't agree with. Badabara (talk) 18:01, 18 September 2020 (UTC)

What is this?
"Though some historic Buddhist societies have been categorized as feudalistic, the relationship between peasants and land owners was often voluntary. Free-thinking Buddhist societies supported autonomy; peasants had mobility and could own land themselves."

What does this have to do with democracy? 216.8.174.241 (talk) 12:10, 4 October 2021 (UTC)
 * It's basically saying, "even though many early buddhist societies are classified as feudalistic, they actually had qualities of Democracy". Badabara (talk) 03:40, 5 October 2021 (UTC)
 * Peasants having mobility and owning land is not democracy. 216.8.174.241 (talk) 11:14, 5 October 2021 (UTC)
