Talking to a Scientologist on a long plane ride about Buddhism in 1989 led to more research on Buddhist pseudo Schafer Edward Conor, his Theosophical and elitist cultural sympathies that reflected Nazi notions of race. An article by J Atwood written around 2018 exposes the flaw in Conze’s scholarship. I also reflect on the origin of “nazi” derived from Ignatz (Ignacious) and used in Bavaria before Hitlerism emerged. Natzi was a social slur much as rube, wop, mick, and similar slang. https://d1wqtxts1xzle7.cloudfront.net/65110867/Conze_JOCBS_vol19-libre.pdf?1607165442=&response-content-disposition=inline%3B+filename%3DEdward_Conze_A_Call_to_Reassess_the_Man.pdf&Expires=1778288852&Signature=IgdkdDw5f9Y0eVVmi67IeyI4b~9n-RjRbeywN55cNcQvBXzlm-np9RxiYtyFTb-n0mms-j-MCoFXJWVR-EtLufGf4Eicq69JmFvFMn3xhy19Agh~Ym3G0U2UebKOy6quhJ5RWZae8LMvEl8b6SNBZJ7PhDN4F6BLLENAP47q02teHKtrNIOum8wkP3N-ElSZ-IS-2BVdgx8hdgBFTvssHcda~DuW7d6eS3Wqnn18cl6sDOASVeBkdjIOyIbjO~~nwLFQBP6ePAcdL1rX7ClUtJKQVPmCTK5aoJFBltGGE5zY6~h7ltD5JxeqXAgnGb5801CokpfTeRybTiWNg5kdKA__&Key-Pair-Id=APKAJLOHF5GGSLRBV4ZA
