Vanessa R. Sasson's book The Gathering: A Story of the First Buddhist Women (Equinox, 2023) is a retelling of the story of the first Buddhist women's request for ordination. Inspired by the Therigatha and building on years of research and experience in the field, Sasson follows Vimala, Patachara, Bhadda Kundalakesa, and many others as they walk through the forest to request full access to the tradition.  The Buddha's response to this request is famously complicated; he eventually accepts women into the Order, but specific and controversial conditions are attached. Sasson invites us to think about who these first Buddhist women might have been, what they might have hoped to achieve, and what these conditions might have meant to them thereafter. By shaping her research into a story, Sasson invites readers to imagine a world that continues to inspire and complicate Buddhist narrative to this day.

Centre culturel tamoul: Vimala Sawmy clarifie, « aucun financement de l'État n'était prévu », mais la présidente Mauritius Tamil Cultural Centre Trust compte sur le soutien du gouvernement

Au Parlement, ce mardi 2 décembre, le ministre des Arts et de la Culture, Mahen Gondeea, a été interpellé par le député Adrien Duval concernant le centre culturel tamoul. Le ministre Gondeea a affirmé que le gouvernement de l'Alliance du Changement a tenu sa promesse en restituant le terrain situé au Réduit Triangle au Mauritius Tamil Cultural Centre Trust. Cependant, Mahen Gondeea a tenu à préciser que le gouvernement n'avait jamais promis d'apport financier pour la construction du centre culturel. Alors que la polémique enfle, Top FM a interrogé la présidente du Mauritius Tamil Cultural Centre Trust, Vimala Sawmy, pour faire le point. Elle précise que dès la mise en place du nouveau conseil d'administration, un accord de bail a été conclu avec le ministère du Logement et des Terres, restituant ainsi le terrain conformément aux engagements du gouvernement. Vimala Sawmy souligne qu'à aucun moment il n'avait été convenu que l'État financerait la construction du bâtiment. Toutefois, Vimala Sawmy reste confiante quant au soutien du gouvernement. Elle précise que des pourparlers sont actuellement en cours et qu'un comité a été mis en place pour superviser la construction du centre culturel tamoul. Elle insiste également sur le fait que le Mauritius Tamil Cultural Centre Trust ne peut accepter de dons pour ce projet et compte sur l'implication des parties prenantes ainsi que sur le soutien du gouvernement pour voir le bâtiment se concrétiser.

Today is a personally special day for me: the birthday of Mahāmaheśvarācharya Rājānaka Abhinavaguptapada, the foremost Shaiva philosopher-saint of our Kaula Trika tradition!Abhinava Gupta is, in my opinion, the brightest mind and the biggest heart India has ever produced and the most brilliant philosopher the world has ever seen, on par with Shankara and the Buddha. Importantly, there are striking parallels between  Abhinava Gupta's theistic, devotional non-dualism and that of Ramakrishna and Vivekananda. In this lecture, we do a brief biographical sketch of this great master and point out some of the things that make him so admirable and important and above all, relevant for the needs of modern day spiritual aspirants. May this be an offering placed lovingly at his feet, he who is Bhairava incarnate. विमलकलाश्रयाभिनवसृष्टिमहा जननी भरिततनुश्च पञ्चमुखगुप्तरुचिर्जनकः।तदुभययामलस्फुरितभावविसर्गमयं हृदयमनुत्तरामृतकुलं मम संस्फुरतात्॥१॥Vimala-kalāśrāyabhinava-srsti-mahājananīBharita-tanuś ca pañca-mukha-gupta-rucir janakahTad-ubhaya-yāmala-sphurita-bhāva-visarga-mayamhrdayam anuttarāmrta-kulam mama samsphuratāt  (1)May my heart, filled with the nectar of the embodied Absolute, which has emerged from the ecstatic union of the Mother who is the radiant and pure ground of ever new creation and the Father who is the five faced Shiva ever expressing and delighting Himself in that creation shine forth! Lectures happen live on zoom every Monday at 7pm PST and Friday 10am PST and Friday at 6pm PST.  There's Q&A right after the lectures. It is free and open to the public.

Vimala Thakar (1921- 2009) was born in Bilaspur District in the Indian state of Chhattisgarh. She was a great spiritually enlightened revolutionary and activist; mystic, and a notable Indian figure of the 20th Century who boldly forged a radically independent approach to spirituality and the search for truth. In 1958, Thakar attended talks given by, and met with, the philosopher Jiddu Krishnamurti. This meeting was to change her life. Freed from all religious tradition, she brought the timeless wisdom of the East to the modern egalitarian West without the baggage of religious terminology, endeavoring to awaken people through deep inquiry. Fiercely independent, beholden only to her own burning passion for liberation, she crisscrossed the world for many years, travelling to 35 countries through the sixties, seventies and eighties, exhorting all who would listen to wake up to what she would term the ‘totality of Life.'
