Hi,

Firstly, I'm not sure this is in the right forum, but i'm sure the moderators will change it if it isn't.

I've been looking for a book by Sri Dhammananda for a little while now called 'What Buddhist's Believe' but i'm really struggling to find it for anything less than about £20+ and was wondering if anyone could point me in the direction of somewhere I could get it which won't cost a lot of money in postage & packing from BMSM in Malaysia (although they have been very helpful) and DOESN'T involve Amazon making a profit from it! I have been told the last version was the 4th edition (expanded) and that it generally seemed to be a donation book available at monasteries, but I have not been able to track it down anywhere.

I have found it in it's entirity online, but I wish to have a hard copy for my bookshelf instead of lots of A4 pages printed out.

Thank you for any help anyone can give.

Thanks for the rapid reply,... but does anyone know where I can get it in the UK?

(sorry, my bad, should've pointed that out... forget this is global site sometimes!)

Under the Add to Basket button, there should be a Destination, Rates & Speed link to let you know the different rates for shipment to countries outside the US..

It may be still available free from:

OR Why not download it and read it on your computer for free?
.pdf is here. When you are able, maybe print it off.

Look at this. Recent thread "I give books" by Adrien: http://www.dhammawheel.com/viewtopic.php?f=8&t=6987" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
He seems to have the book you want.

Yes, thanks, but once I start importing it from other countries, the price rockets up to beyond feasibility, which is why i'm looking for it in the UK

Cooran, thanks but, again, the first link is for a place in New Zealand and I think you missed the bit in the original post where I know it's free online but i'm trying to get a printed hard copy.

Yeah, If you look I was the last person to post on that thread, but the original poster from france hasn't replied to me. It would seem like possibly the perfect solution though.

Just hope he checks his mail soon. :smile:

Thanks, i'll give them a bell in the morning. It was way down the list cos I think they're assuming one lives in the US so the postage and all to out there would be quite a bit.
