Venerable Lobsang Dechen : Célébration de l'obtention du diplome de geshé pour les nonnes tibétaines

Until recently, the Geshe degree, which Tibetan Buddhists consider the equivalent of a PHD in Buddhist Philosophy, was only available to Tibetan monks. Following many years of intense discussion, the decision was taken to offer Tibetan Buddhist nuns a Geshe degree too. Ven. Lobsang Dechen, Co-Director of the Tibetan Nuns Project, in Dharamsala, India, will discuss why this was important and what the challenges and successes have been within the community, and for the nuns themselves.
