Fireside Chat on the Feminine Aspect of Buddhism with Khentrul Rinpoche and Judith Simmer-Brown

Boulder Shambhala Center 1345 Spruce St, Boulder, CO 80302

Khentrul Rinpoche and Judith Simmer-Brown sit down for a fireside chat on the feminine aspect of Buddhism. Tibetan Buddhism has for centuries been dominated by male Guru figures in patriarchal society. This lead women in Tibet to pray to be reborn a man and many women in western society question whether there are only male buddhas? This is far from the nature of what is actually taught in Dharma. In Kalachakra Tantra we have the ultimate union of both the feminine and masculine aspect both of which we need to realize enlightenment.
