  3. Dear Venerable Dhammika

    Your blog articles are always insightful, incisive, comprehensive by looking at the issue from different viewpoints and undoubtedly well researched. I have read every one of them and will miss your temporary absence.

    May you enjoy your travel as much as I enjoy your blog.

    I know you are going to set a world record for being the first monk to reach Mt Everest wearing only the saffron robes!!

    Have fun!!

  8. Dear reasonable,
    I am most interested to hear your views on the "theistic" position on euthanasia if they differ from the Venerable's. Would be great if you could jot down for us a few pointers. Thanks

  9. Hello Bhante
    It's Lorna from Darwin. The young Vietnamese nun came to see you recently, not knowing you were away and I'll be in Sing in Dec/Jan on my way to and from a wedding in Mumbai.
    So hope the trip went well and hope to see you.
