Saturday, May 11th, 2024, 1:00pm - 5:30pm ET

Mahapajapati, the Buddha’s aunt who raised him, is as a symbol of wisdom, care, nurturing, and leadership—an embodiment of caregivers, mothers, heroes, and leaders alike. Despite her significant role as a great Bodhisattva, her story remains untold and underappreciated in many discussions even today. During this two-day program, we will delve deeper into the life of Mahapajapati, drawing connections to our modern-day experiences.
