“A colleague once asked a monk about the tenets of Buddhism and received a brief summary of the Christian catechism in reply—he left with the impression that the man to whom he had been speaking doubled up as a Buddhist monk and a Christian priest for the purposes of guiding foreigners, and had confused his roles that day.”

“But I nowhere had the sense that discipline was severe; the atmosphere suggested that students had an affectionate respect for their teachers. Students wore uniforms—white traditional blouses and navy skirts for girls, white shirts and dark trousers for boys. The size of classes that I saw varied but did not seem excessive. The greatest number of students that I saw in a class was about thirty.”
