THE VENERABLE LOKANATHA-Buddhist monk from Burma
converses with D. K. Nanavati (left) and D. C. Gami (right).
Lokanatha has stopped at the University on his one man mission-
ary tour of the U.S.
MISSION TO U.S.:
World Spiritual Hunger
Noted by Buddhist Monk,
I
"For years 'missionaries have
been sent to Burma from the U.S.
and now Burma is reciprocating
the kindness," the Venerable Lo-
kanatha, Buddhist monk re-
marked at an informal talk at
the Student Religious Association
coffee hour yesterday.
"The world suffers from spiri-
tual starvation," he said. "I have
come to the United States to pave
the way for the teaching of Bud-
dhism and to further the cause of
tolerance through understanding.
THE VENERABLE Lokanatha,
dressed in his gold monk's robe,
symbolic of ripeness and maturity
explained his conversion to Bud-
dhism.
"The Buddhist scriptures,
changed the entire course of my
life. I was born a Roman Cath-
olic, in Italy. It was while I
was studying at Columbia Uni-
versity that I decided to for-
sake the world. for perfection."
"My first objective was to get to
the Buddhist religious center in
Burma," Lokanatha explained.
But that was no easy matter.

IN ORDER TO obtain a pass-
port and overcome the objections
of his parents Lokanatha had to
go on a hunger strike. But that
was only the beginning. The first
lap of the trip from southern Eu-
rope to Asia Minor was made
alone, on foot.
"Later, he explained, "I spent
8 years in the Himalayas in
meditations, sometimes going
Foreign Policy
Needs Strength
Peek Asserts
The United States must con-
tinue to base her foreign policyj
:m economic, military and moral,
strength, said George A. Peek, of
the political science department,
at a meeting of the Young Demo-
~rats.
Support of the United Nations,
the Economic Recovery Program
and the strengthening of freedom-
loving nations against the threat
Af aggression must be the prin-
sipal planks of any foreign policy
programs, Peek asserted.
HE TERMED such regional
pacts as the North Atlantic Alli-
ince as both legal and binding
and vital in the battle of power
politics.
It is essential that the United
States remain in Germany since
only long term education can
convert Germany into a peace
loving nation, Peek declared.

for three months without speak-
ing."
"When I realized that the mis-
sionary spirit-the very founda-
tion of Buddhism-had died, I
decided to devote my life explain-
ing my beliefs.

"I LEFT THE monastery with
80 monks and started on my first
marching expedition through
Burma." Enthusiasts flocked to
join the marching monks and soon
the expedition numbered 227.
Lokanatha's next mission was
in Siam." We walked through
the wildest jungles with only
the weapon of loving kindness
to protect us."
The monks made plans for sub-
sequent expeditions through Eu-
rope and America. "These plans
were curtailed by the war but now
we have begun our mission to
bring our culture and' religion to
the world."
The venerable Lokanatha will
give a second address at 1 p.m.
today, at Lane Hall.

terned after the currently func-
tioning Ordnance Precision Gauge
Group, has been setup with an
eye to the problems involved in
engine breakdowns and repairs,
Supervisor M/Sgt. H. Schnell in-
dicated.
At the first session action was
taken to answer the ever-har-
assing question, "Why won't
this darned engine start?"
M/Sgt. Schnell demonstrated a
systematic method of eliminat-
ing possible causes of engine
stalls and setbacks.
Students immediately started
work on the malfunctions of the
engine; as they progress, their
discussions and actual work will
spread to other parts of the au-
tomotive vehicle, according to
Prof. J. A. Bolte of the automo-
tive department, advisor to the
group.
It is expected that all group
members will participate in a
group display at the Ordnance
Open House, April 22. Some of
the students will be blindfolded
and instructed to repair an en-
gine that has been previously
tampered with, Prof. Bolte said.
All four-year ROTC Ordnance
students are eligible for group
membership, according to ROTC
headquarters.
