Who’s who at the College?

Vidyatara writes from Adhisthana, where she works as assistant to the College of Public Preceptors’ College and its Chair.

“How does an Ordination team of just four support 800-900 women across India who are training for ordination?

What is published poet and brand-new Public Preceptor Maitreyabandhu’s favourite book?

What makes Indian Public Preceptor Jnanasuri happy?

The answers to these questions and more can be found in a series of video interviews with Triratna’s Public Preceptors made during a recent meeting at Adhisthana.

Over the next few months, we will be posting these interviews on the College’s own space here on the Buddhist Centre Online, so you can get more of a sense of the people behind this central Triratna institution and the extraordinary work they do.

This month you can watch short interviews with

• Karunamaya and Jnanasuri from Pune, India and
• Maitreyabandhu from the London Buddhist Centre.

The College page also provides information on how you can help support the Public Preceptors financially in the work they do, together with links to Dharma talks given by the College members and by Bhante, as well as key publications.”
