This ceremony had been intended to give alms to all of the bhikkhun\u012bs in Sri Lanka and was thus itself noteworthy. However, the attention of this paper is on the two main players behind this ceremony. One is a Sri Lankan monk who has been a long term Therav\u0101da missionary in Mah\u0101y\u0101na Taiwan, and the other is a Taiwanese nunnery which has not limited its works to Taiwan. This paper wishes to shed light on cross-tradition exchanges among Asian Buddhists. <\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/blogs.dickinson.edu\/buddhistethics\/files\/2011\/06\/Cheng-Bhikkhun\u012bs.pdf\">Read article<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>ISSN 1076-9005 Volume 18, 2011 A Cross-Tradition Exchange Between Taiwan and Sri Lanka Wei-Yi Cheng Hsuan Chuang University This paper uses as an example an alms-offering ceremony that took place on October 5, 2010 to illustrate cross-tradition exchanges between Asian Buddhists of different geographic locations.
