Santipada

It is often held that a fully ordained Buddhist nun, or bhikkhuni, may not cri­ti­cize or admon­ish a monk. The tra­di­tional tales tell a dif­fer­ent story, one where nuns are cheeky and invent­ive in the ways they prick the pride of stub­born or fool­ish monks — all for the sake of teach­ing them Dhamma, of course.
