The Buddhist Attitude to War and peace

 Some months ago in Singapore, I picked up a bundle of Buddhist tracts. Here is another tract. It is entitled

The Buddhist Attitude to War and peace 
By
Senarth Wijayasundara, M.A.

The book was published by the Buddhist Research Society of Singapore. Like the previous book in the series, the reverse of the title page tells us who sponsored the printing/donated the book. The Donor in this case was Miss Chan Yin Leng.

This book is evidently one of a set of 10 publications. 
The books are: 
  1. Meditation by Ven. Dr. M. Vajirana Thera
  2. The Buddha - His Life and Teachings bu Ven. Piyadassi Thera
  3. A Modern View On Buddhism by Bhikshu Sangharakshita (will be featured subsequently) 
  4. Facts of Life by Narada Thera
  5. Health through Buddhism by Dr M. Vajirana Thero
  6. Peace through Buddhism by  Dr. M. Vajirana Thera
  7. Guide through Visuddhi Magga (A study on the path of purification) by Dr. U. Dhammaratna
  8. Buddhist Attitude to War and peace by Senarth Wijayasundara, M.A.
  9. An introduction to Buddhism by Dr. H. Saddhatissa
  10. One Vehicle for Peace
If any knowledgeable readers may locate online copies of any of the above works, the author will be most grateful. 


The Wisdom Book Centre of Singapore does not seem to have an online presence.
