Venerable Canda's inspiring Story: what led a young woman from Chesterfield, in the north of England, to the monastic life, full bhikkhuni ordination, and the founding of Anukampa Bhikkhuni Project? This talk was given on behalf of the Dhamma Centre, Essex in 2020. A Buddhist nun since 2006, Ven Canda emphasises kindness and letting go as a way to deepen stillness and wisdom, and her teachings are richly informed by the compassion and pragmatism of the Early Buddhist Texts.
