Ordination In New Zealand

Dear friends,

I am delighted to announce that the former Chris Bicknell was publicly ordained today at the Wellington Buddhist Centre.

He becomes Jnanamudra (the ‘Jn’ may be pronounced -jnya and a long first ‘a’), a Sanskrit name meaning ‘he who has the seal of knowledge‘.

His private preceptor is Purna and his public preceptor is myself

with Metta,
Ratnavyuha
