This month we had a group of happy ladies coming from Brazil, France, Italy, the Netherlands, Switzerland, Germany and Canada. Some of them are waiting for temporary ordination, while others just wanted to meet Ven Dhammananda and know more about Buddhism. All of them appreciated the temple provided for international women.
