The Buddhist Discipline in Relation to Bhikkhunis: Questions and Answers - Phra Payutto and Dr. Martin Seeger

LanguageEnglish
AbstractThe question of bhikkhuni ordination should be studied clearly by applying two principles: first, one should gain as clear an understanding of the formal monastic discipline--the Vinaya--as possible; second, one should establish a mind of loving - kindness and compassion towards the women who wish to be ordaines. This consideration, however, should not be done in an errant fashion. It needs to be performed collectively--the entire monastic sangha should participate in this discussion. In this way the sangha will be endowed with knowledge and kindness.
