ABOUT BURMA (MYANMAR) AND BUDDHISM

        According to many Buddhism Experts, Burma, the land of pagodas, is the only country in the world where Theravada Buddhism flourishes most and also the only country in the world where there are Pali Athakathas and Tikas completely published. And Anumadhu, Ganhti, Yojana, Dipani, Anudipani, Nissaya Dipani, Ayakauk and many other valuable documents can be studied. There are fifty two thousand monasteries, over one thousand monastic institutions (Colleges) and two State Pariyatti Sasana Universities (Yangon / Mandalay) plus the newly-opened International Buddhist Missionary University . There are also sixteen hundred thousand Bhikkhus and twenty five thousand novices and more than five hundred Meditation Centres. Myanmar had been twice blessed by the holding of the last two International Theravada Buddhist Councils (Synods). Tipitakadhara examination, another unique feature, ( to memorize and recite 8025 pages of the Tipitaka) has been held annually for many decades and so far six bhikkhu candidates have passed both oral and written parts.
