Dr Ambedkar and his followers embrace Buddhism - a personal perspective

Jnanasuri talks about being in Nagpur in 1956 when Dr Ambedkar embraced Buddhism along with 400,000 of his followers. At the age of 13 she and her family took part in that momentous event that changed her life, and the lives of all who took part, forever. In Marathi with English translation by Bharati, extracted from a longer interview which took place at the Dr Ambedkar retreat at Adhisthana.

Introduction to Ambedkar

We recently ran a retreat at Adhisthana with a team of Indian Order Members introducing Ambedkar. Vajratara interviewed our fine panel of Indian Sangha - the highlight of which is Jnanasuri recounting her experiences of Ambedkar embracing Buddhism with 400,000 followers in 1956. She was there aged 13! Later in the retreat we recited the Refuges and Precepts after Jnanasuri, who had recited them after Dr Ambedkar himself. It was a very moving moment.

Kamalanandi

Kamalanandi

From Order Connection on Fri, 8 Dec, 2017 - 15:48

Dear Order Members,

Lokeshvara and the UK and Ireland men’s regional Order Convenors would like to personally welcome Kamalanandi into the men’s wing of the Order.  We wish him well.

We don’t feel we can make this decision on behalf of other order members, but we would like to recommend this to all Dharmacharis, in the spirit of Kalyana Mitrata.   

We also recognise that, as yet, we have no formal process for a transition...

Also, there is a story about a terrifying piece of cloth. The talk was given during a sub-35 weekend at Padmaloka in November 2017.
