The Dharma Dialogues: Women in Buddhism
December 19, 2021
A year-long series of conversations sponsored by Natural Dharma Fellowship
Live online featuring a different teacher one Sunday each month from 10:00 to 11:30 ET
If you have already registered for the series, you do not need to register again. If you’re not sure that you’re registered, please check your user account.
No matter when you register, you will have access to the recordings for the entire series.
Beginning with the first female disciples of the Buddha, women have shaped the trajectory of Buddhism, sometimes overtly as the founders of lineages and sometimes quietly from the fringes of the tradition. Many of their writings and practices survive and thrive. This history of influence and inspiration continues to this day as Buddhism spreads to the West, even while many women still struggle with the vestiges of patriarchy within the tradition. Join us for a series of monthly conversations exploring women, gender, patriarchy and Buddhism with some of the leading voices on these topics in the West.

In order make our courses affordable for all who wish to attend, we are offering a three-level fee structure that takes into account people’s differing financial circumstances:

Supported – for those with limited financial resources or recent financial hardship
The amounts listed are suggestions. You may write in any amount that fits your financial situation. Any amount offered above the Series Fee level will be considered a tax-deductible donation and will be acknowledged as such.
