New Order Member for Croydon

By Dhammavijaya on Tue, 24 Jul, 2012 - 12:49On Friday 20th July 2012 , Carole-Jane Ganpot was publicly ordained into the Triratna Buddhist Order in a ceremony conducted by Parami at the Croydon Buddhist Centre. Her private preceptor Dayapakshini gave her the name Pasadanandi, meaning “she who delights in a clear mind”. This was the first Public Ordination to have been celebrated at Croydon’s High Street premises, and was witnessed with delight in a shrine room full of order members, mitras, friends and family members.
