"What we have is a very wonderful problem and the wonderful problem is that so many people are seeing the value of Buddhism in India and they are wanting to embrace Buddhism and the Buddhist path - and they are wanting to do that in their hundreds. But, of course, as we know, Buddhism is a path of practice. It requires careful study and training…it requires spiritual friendship. So who is going to meet these people?"
Vajratara is the Chair of the India Dhamma Trust which exists to help create supportive conditions for Buddhist practice in India. In this podcast she speaks about her connection with India, what we can learn from the life of Dr Ambedkar and how the work of the India Dhamma Trust, inspired by Dr Ambedkar's example, is helping to transform lives.
Recorded at Adhisthana, 1 December 2018.
