About Burmese Culture
"This is Burma, and it will be quite unlike any land you know about."
Rudyard Kipling
Letters From the East (1889)
I simply wish to share these images of Burma with fellow expats of the diaspora who might feel a little homesick from time to time and with the rest of the world that might take a friendly interest in the country.
May the world cease to be dominated by human greed and selfishness, the sorry state it's been in ever since Vasco da Gama rounded the Cape in the first successful attempt at globalisation.
May all sentient beings without exception be happy.
My humble obeisance to the Five Boundless Beneficence - the Buddha, the Dhamma, the Sangha, my parents and all my teachers by actual instruction or just by sight or by ear.
PLEASE NOTE:
