Resignation of Kamalamani

From Order Connection on Fri, 25 Nov, 2016 - 17:58

Dear Order Members,

Kamalamani, from Bristol, UK, was ordained at Tiratanaloka in 2005, with Maitreyi as her private preceptor and myself as her public preceptor. She has been in correspondence with the two of us over several months while considering her resignation from the Order, and visited each of us yesterday to communicate her final decision. After talking with Kamalamani and Maitreyi, I have accepted her resignation.

We are sorry to see her leave the Order, but wish her well on her path....

Ashoka

From Bristol Buddhist Centre on Wed, 23 Nov, 2016 - 00:00
Ashoka the Great was a man of contrasts and of transformation. A mere human being yet a colossus. Is it true this brutal emperor, whose wars of expansion killed hundreds of thousands, became the most important person after the Buddha in the development of Buddhism? Listen to this talk and decide for yourself.
