Lama Of Riccarton
Sir, —I thank the editor for the announcement that 1 “will be welcome to space in our columns.” (This announcement was made for the benefit of a person who sent in a letter on the subject, which has not been published.) Mr Mackintosh states he has studied Buddhism for over 20 years If so, he must know 1 do not have the right to defend myself, being bound by sacred vows of initiation with which he should be fully conversant. The lamasery at Riccarton is not closed, as stated in the report in “The Press,” and inquiries are being dealt with at telephone 64-718. The “retinue” will be back on duty 24 hours a day, seven days a week, on September 11, and carry on as usual regardless of such attacks.— Yours, etc., (Rev.) SIDNEY M. MEAD, D.D.M. Tasmania, undated.
