[Buddha-l] Meanwhile Down Under

[Jampa Tsedroen]

Dear Bankei,

I am wondering whether it would be possible to get a scan of that book. 
Is it very long? It seems that it is quite rare and difficult to get.
For the sad history behind this see Kabilsingh, Thai Women in Buddhism, 
1991.

A summary is available here:

See also this very interesting contribution by Bhante Sujato on the 1928 
bhikkhuni ban here on his blog:

Best wishes,

Jampa Tsedroen
