Death of Prasannamitra

From Order Connection on Tue, 20 Apr, 2021 - 19:38

Recently he found coronavirus positive and due to this pandemic, it was difficult to get proper treatment.

From the beginning, Prasannamitra was very much engaged with the Ambedkarite...

Ex-Taramati resigned in Spring 2019 after conversations and communication with her private preceptor Paramachitta and myself. Although we verbally accepted the resignation, I had wanted to meet with her face to face for a conversation before informing...

Excerpted from the talk entitled Let Your Poison Be Your Cure given at the ...
