Dear Eisel,
Thanks for clearing up the matter. The Abhidhaanappadiipikaa should be
mailed out to you shortly and let's hope it *does* reach you within the next
few weeks. I've also ordered a copy for myself along with Kaccaayana's
grammar to replace the worn out 1986 copies I showed you at the cafe in
Toronto. In addition, I've ordered the Ruupasiddhi-.tiikaa, Niruttidiipanii,
and Moggallaanabyaakara.na.m. All for $10 each plus 15% shipping.
I hope you find the two books useful in your studies. They were sent to you
as we agreed upon during our meeting in Toronto in exchange for the two
photocopies of Kaccaayana's grammar you gave me, one in the Thai script and
the other in Sinhalese. In fact, I was looking them over just yesterday and
look forward to spending more time with them in the near future.
I will continue to make enquiries about Pali grammatical texts in Myanmar
and have just recontacted my friend Ven. U Thitzana who I first met in 1982.
I thought he might be able to help as he was the one who sent me the two
books I showed you. I've even asked him about the Ma~njuusaa that Ole
enquired about but haven't heard back yet. I've been told that he has the
Tipitaka memorized along with its commentaries but I'm not sure where he
stands with respect to the traditional Pali grammars.
Best wishes,
Jim
