    “Book Descriptions: Ven. Dhammika write this book from a perspective of modern liberalism. Liberalism, in general sense, asserts that free persons act according to their own inner mandates, critically reflect on their own ideals, and resist blindly following social customs--particularly customs that reinforce authoritarianism. By this point of view Dhammika criticizing practices of Buddhism in Thailand and Ceylon.”
