Now, what none of these texts do

Read back over everything in this lesson and look for one particular thing. A way of telling.

It is not there. Not in a verse, not in a report. The texts affirm that these things exist. They prescribe refuge, recitation and a washing. What they never do, anywhere, is hand a person a set of signs for working out which of them is happening to a particular human being in a particular month.

That absence is not an oversight to be filled in by a website. It is why this course has no checklist in it. Anything of that shape, however carefully worded, gets used as a diagnosis, and a diagnosis made from a list on a screen buys delay and nothing else.

So the first question stays open. What the texts give you instead is the second question, answered generously, in the next lesson.
