PATTANEIKKUZANA (EXCOMMUNICATIVE BOYCOTT) RECITAL BY MONKS
SUCCESSFULLY ACCOMPLISHED TODAY

Unofficial Translation of Buddhist Recital Performed By the Monks at 12:00 Noon

on 18 Sep 2007

military rulers who are robbing the nation's finances and indeed are large-scale thieves
have murdered a monk in the City of Pakokku. They also apprehended the reverend monks

tyrants, not to accept four material things donated by them and not to preach to them. This

the silence and if not, please voice objections, Fathers. …
