The Truth Behind Wonder Woman’s Lasso of Truth: A Buddhist Perspective
In Buddhism, truth holds great significance. It reveals falsehoods, deceptions, and the genuine nature of reality. It wasn't until I delved into my recent study of The Noble Eightfold Path (the path to enlightenment) that I recognized the correlation between the right of speech (one of the eight practices) and Wonder Woman's lasso of truth.

Agatha All Along
The first two episodes of Agatha All Along were a huge hit. The internet has been singing Down the Witches Road for a week now and it is safe to say that we are all obsessed with this phenomenal cast. The show has done an incredible job of setting up the individual stories as well as the big group dynamic. The pacing has been great and the show is a great time. We last left with the newly formed coven opening the door to the witches road and stepping inside. This was of course after Teen was freaked out by the Salem Seven. So here we go with the third episode of Agatha All Along.

Wiccan
Okay so we have a lot of characters in Agatha All Along so far. Some of them are extremely comic book accurate and others, not so much. And then we have some mystery. We have a young man who is yet to be named. Of course the popular fan theory is that he is Billy, Wanda’s son. Also known in the comics as Wiccan. Here’s the deal, if he’s not Wiccan I am going to be extremely upset. This is not the time for original thoughts. That said I have complete faith in Jac Shaeffer and I know that she knows what she is doing. So let’s talk about who the hell Wiccan is and why it is important that he be brought into the MCU at this point in time.

The Witches Road
The major plot for Agatha All Along seems to be about Agatha and her new coven traveling the witches road. Some fans were, rightfully, upset by this realization because this is one of Scarlet Witch’s major storylines from one of her few solo titles. Those of us that have been in the trenches of the internet for the last few years have heard things like, “Wanda can’t carry her own movie” and “there isn’t enough to her character for a whole trilogy”. Now both of these statements are blatantly wrong and show a distinct lack of comic book knowledge and common sense. But the idea that there is a lack of substance to her character is present in the fandom. So to take one of her major storylines and give it to Agatha is wildly insulting. That said, I have faith in Jac Shaeffer as she is the only one to handle my Wanda with care and respect. So what exactly is the witches road storyline and what parts of it will we actually see in the show?
