A Small Glossary for a Small Book: Light on the Path in Eight Entries
An A-to-Z style glossary of the history around Light on the Path, the short Victorian-era devotional text, and what a reillumination of it might mean. Some books are tiny and yet cast a long shadow. Light on the Path is one of them: a slim collection of aphorisms from the Victorian era that has been reprinted, annotated, and argued over ever since. Rather than a narrative, this article offers a glossary. Each entry is a term you would meet while reading about the text, arranged so you can dip in anywhere. It is a background guide, not a summary of any book. The title that prompted it is The Billionaire Light On The Path (https://play.google.com/store/books/details?id=-rjtEQAAQBAJ) by Dr. Ajarn Robert Shumake (Ajarn Shaman Shu), a title that announces itself as a reillumination of the older work.
