Resignation of Suhada

From Order Connection on Tue, 4 Apr, 2017 - 04:47

Dear Order Members,

I recently received a detailed letter of resignation from Suhada. After consultation between myself as his Public Preceptor and with Vessantara, his Private Preceptor, we have agreed to accept his resignation from the Order. We wish Suhada well with his life and continued explorations.

Suhada is from Bristol, UK, and was ordained in October 2001 at Guhyaloka Retreat Centre. His letter of resignation can be read below.

With Metta,
Surata
