Re: Tipitakadharas of Myanmar

Dear Jim,
I find this very important. The oral tradition also ensures the purity of
the texts. I am really glad this tradition is still alive. If you do not
mind I would like to use your info in dsg when there is an appropriate
occasion. People tend to doubt about the correctness of the texts.
Thank you,
Nina.
