All too often, it is men who teach Buddhism, but these days in November 2022, had the pleasure of having bhikkhuni Venerable Canda visiting. So then we had the opportunity for an event by, with and for women only – a rare and exciting setting for a focus in Buddhism.
Bhikkhuni Canda received brilliant feedback, and the theme of the evening was how to find joy and peace in life.
