Hi everyone,

My name's Aaron and I'm a monk staying at Wat Pa Baan Taad - Acariya Maha Boowa's monastery in Northeastern Thailand. I subscribed to many Theravadan groups last night, for I am trying to gather together a list of mailing addresses of international Buddhist communities, organizations, monasteries, meditation groups, etc... who would be interested in receiving a shipment of the new 2nd edition English translation of Venerable Acariya Mun's biography to share amongst their friends and families, members of other Buddhist groups, public or university/college libraries, and/or whoever else they might think would be interested in reading it. Acariya Mun's biography was written by Acariya Maha Boowa in 1971, and translated by one of his long-time American disciples - Acariya Dick Silaratano- for several years before it was first printed in 2003. Last year, the biography was registered with the National Library of Congress in the United States and it has recently been given the ISBN - 974-92007-4-8 which makes the book more convenient to use by computerized libraries. The new English translation of the Acariya Mun Biography can be downloaded or read from: http://www.luangta.com/english/site/book8_biomun.html should you like to review the book we wish to send overseas. Just to assure everyone - the cost of shipping the books is covered over here in Thailand and Acariya Maha Boowa's books are always given away for free distribution.
At present, many copies of the biography are being printed in Bangkok which will be sent overseas in about a month's time. We are now contacting Buddhist groups and organizations worldwide to see if they'd be willing to receive them and share them out amongst their members.
So, should any Buddhist community be interested in receiving a shipment of Acariya Mun's Biography could you please reply to this email at aaronrychlo@... , sending me your contact information, mailing address - and an estimation of how many people belong to your community so we will be able to send you an appropriate amount of copies? If anyone has any more questions, please feel free to reply and ask them. Thanks you for your time.
Regards, Tahn Aaron
