Meditation Circle LogoPlan to meditate 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. Celebrate with us! As the date approaches, downloads, talks, and tools to create an informative as well as transformative local retreat will be posted here.

Downloads and Tools that were created for the First Annual International Bhikkhuni Day are still available.
