ROBED WARRIORS:WOMEN MONASTICS

This one-time course takes advantage of the visits of three eminent Buddhist monastic women from three great Buddhist traditions (Chinese, Japanese and Tibetan) who are each transforming Buddhist practice in the 21st centuries and are each transforming their societies through their distinctive approaches to socially engaged Buddhism. Students will be introduced to contemporary socially engaged Buddhism as a practice, and to its diverse manifestations, but also to the special role that monastics and monastic women in particular, play in this movement.
