We are honored to welcome Venerable Thubten Damcho and Venerable Thubten Rinchen from Sravasti Abbey in Washington state for a special evening of Dharma teachings and meditation on the timely topic: Compassion in the Modern World.

In our fast-paced, often divided world, how can we keep our hearts open and our actions kind? Drawing from the Tibetan Mahāyāna Buddhist tradition, the Venerables will explore how compassion is not only possible—but essential—amid today’s challenges.
Join us for this rare opportunity to sit with and learn from two fully ordained bhikshunis:

Venerable Thubten Damcho, who originally hails from Singapore, encountered the Dharma while at Princeton University and went on to receive full ordination in Taiwan. A close student of Venerable Thubten Chodron, she teaches internationally and contributes to translation projects such as 84000: Translating the Words of the Buddha.

Venerable Thubten Rinchen (American), former Atlanta resident and Stanford-educated PhD in Physics, found Buddhism through the teachings of Venerable Thubten Chodron and has devoted her life to spiritual practice, monastic service, and environmental care.

Whether you're new to Buddhism or have an established practice, this evening offers a heartfelt and practical exploration of how to live with compassion, clarity, and courage.

Open to all. No prior experience necessary.

Free admission. Donations welcome.

Bonus!

The Venerables will also be teaching at Drepung Loseling Monastery on Thursday May 7 at 7pm, and the Georgia Buddhist Camp from May 8 - 10. For details and registration, visit: georgiabuddhistcamp.com
Come experience wisdom, compassion, and community. We look forward to seeing you!
