Asking for a friend ... who happens to be covered in them... like acupuncture, but mosquito bite acupuncture. and what is the buhddist attitude towards mosquito bites, do you scratch them or not?

The card-carrying Theravadin monks are not allowed to kill them (so they get the novices to clean the water tanks). Learned that from Tim Ward's book, "The Great Dragon's Fleas". Good book, full of odd bits and pieces he gathered in traveling Southeast Asia in search of wisdom (and not really finding it). 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
