I am busy but not with holidays (although I do have to go dig out my menorah before nightfall tomorrow) but instead with therapy.
I do want to respond to your questions. There are many different answers. Simply put the opinions expressed in that snippet of that article are those of that professor only. She believes that. Not every buddhist does.
Just as every person on this planet has a different image of a greater being(s) or the image or idea of the lack thereof. We're all entitled to have different beliefs.
I will be responding as I am able to.
>What's the Napoleon complex?Here is one definition of Napoleon complex: (n) An arrogant and aggressive demeanor that arises to combat insecurity about one's small stature
I'll be back with my interpertation of that professor's remarks and your questions.
Take care. Sorry this isn't as timely as could be but that is a great lesson in patience. Verrrrry zen. ; )
