Defying racial boundaries, he scandalised the colonial establishment of the 1900s. As a Buddhist monk, he energetically challenged the values and power of the British empire. U Dhammaloka was a radical celebrity who rallied Buddhists across Asia, set up schools, and argued down Christian missionaries-often using Western atheist arguments. He was tried for sedition, tracked by police and intelligence services, and "died" at least twice. His early years and final days are shrouded in mystery, despite his adept use of mass media. 000931031 588__ $$aDescription based on online resource; title from home page (viewed on April 23, 2020). 000931031 60000 $$aDhammaloka,$$cU. 000931031 650_0 $$aBuddhist monks$$vBiography. 000931031 7001_ $$aCox, Laurence,$$eauthor. 000931031 7001_ $$aBocking, Brian,$$d1951-$$eauthor. 000931031 77608 $$iPrint version: $$z9780190073084 000931031 830_0 $$aOxford scholarship online. 000931031 85280 $$bebk$$hOxford Scholarship Online 000931031 85640 $$3Oxford scholarship online$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://dx.doi.org/10.1093/oso/9780190073084.001.0001$$zOnline Access 000931031 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:931031$$pGLOBAL_SET 000931031 980__ $$aEBOOK 000931031 980__ $$aBIB 000931031 982__ $$aEbook 000931031 983__ $$aOnline
