Re: bhikkhuve

Dear Susi,

Yes, section 25 is the official home of Pali Yai studies in Thailand
(Nirukti Suksa, as they call it).  They have active ties with Burmese
teachers and many Burmese monks come through there; it's been like that
for decades, as I understand.  They have courses on Pali yai, Pali noi,
Visuddhimagga, etc.;  Ajaan Sompong publishes lots of interesting books
and manuals; I got one little book with Kaccayana and a dhaatu
dictionary in one, meant for memorization.  That's also the place where
the Visuddhimagga Thai translation is published (the one translated by
Somdet Buddhajaan while in jail).

Jamroon's email is thainissaya@... <mailto:thainissaya@...>;
that's what he gave me, anyway.  I probably won't see him, though who
knows; I may be in Bangkok for a day on May 14th.  There is another
place he works, but I can't remember the location; an office somewhere
dedicated to the Thai Nissaya project, not in Wat Mahadhatu.  You can
surely find out at section 25.  Please tell them Phra Noah sent you, and
that I send my best regards (I stay there often when in Bangkok).

Best wishes,

Yuttadhammo
