Honouring and celebrating Bhikkunis and Laywomen: an initiative of the Alliance for Bhikkhunis

Celebrate with us! Become a part of the expanding circle supporting bhikkhunis. Once a year, we pay respect to the Bhikkhuni Sangha and acknowledge its essential role in preserving the dhamma. We remember prominent bhikkhunis and their unique achievements. We also honor all of our women teachers, including our mothers, grandmothers, aunts, and sisters. Join in a day of giving and receiving, of listening and sharing.

The celebrations at Santi will begin at 12.30pm. If you wish to join us for lunch, please arrive a little before 11am and bring a vegetarian dish to share.

There will also be group meditation at 7pm in the Sala.
