It's a long but very interesting paper.  Coincidentally (not 
really,
doesn't exist), I am reading Burdett's "Bangkok 8" which speaks 
much
of Thai Buddhism and provides a philosophical view of the 
subject.


Hey you should have waited to recommend it --- loved the start of 
that book but be prepared for a huge letdown towards the end. If 
you thought 'suspension of disbelief' was strained severely by 
having an otherwise fine plot turn on a peanut allergy, then this 
is much worse: painfully bad, and it totally wiped out what could 
have been a remarkable book.
