Re: question about monk, gold and money in Vinaya

Dear Piya,

I have received your paper of "Monastic and Money" in my email.
Thank you very much for your help.
But I have some confusion about the fonts that you mentioned in our
groups mail. Is "Times Norman" same with "Times New Roman" ? If it
isn't, can you help me from what websites I can install it ?

Sukhi,

Sese
