Sanghamittarama Buddhist Nuns (Bhikkhuni) Residence
Tibetan Buddhist Encyclopedia is now 14 years old
Our Encyclopedia recently received a wonderful opportunity for a major renewal on its 14th birthday . After many years of growing our Encyclopedia had become bit slow and sometimes even decided not to answer when people knocked on the door.
A very big thank you and blessings to Dmytro Rudiy (rudiy.nl) for his great work in upgrading the server, website and all of the infrastructure and helping make TBE fast and reliable again for everyone!
We kindly ask our readers to help us cover the cost of this important upgrade and also help with the ongoing costs of keeping the Encyclopedia alive and freely available.

Sanghamittarama Buddhist Nuns (Bhikkhuni) Residence
Sanghamittarama was opened in 2007 as a supportive place for Buddhist women, whether lay or sangha, to live and practise the Dhamma on the path to Awakening. It is the first residence for ordained Buddhist women in the Theravada tradition in Victoria.
Our small centre was founded by the Buddhist Society of Victoria and Ayya Sucinta, a senior Bhikkhuni from Germany, and a group of devout dedicated women Dhamma supporters. We are also grateful to Ayya Atapi from Sri Lanka and Ayya Dhammananda from Vietnam, both having contributed extensively to the development of the Centre and serving the needs of the community through the Dhamma. Presently, both Ayya Sucinta and Ayya Atapi have returned to Germany and Sri Lanka respectively; Ayya Dhammananda has the intention to return to Vietnam by request of the Vietnamese community of her homeland.
