Thank for uploading this as the original scribd is no longer free to download. I uploaded a copy here (https://archive.org/details/TheNudeMonksBurningRobes) too. This book helped me to get rid of blind faith towards tradition and modern "organized religion". Surely it made my faith more stronger on Buddha, his words, and Ariya Sangha!

A big thank to the author.

Sadhu! Sadhu!!

[Dhammañāṇa]

here a sutta for those who feel doubt arising coming in touch with the worldy side of people in robes.

Sadhu for your generous share.

Althrough Attma does not really have desire to read such,as the life it self has pretty enough of such stories live, such maybe not trough and trough objective perspectives can give those with foxed views some release and no need to speak of the lucky people who how ever come in touch with contemplatives who are walking the path.

much mudita that you found your refuge where it  ears fruits.
