In today’s society, it is almost unthinkable for a wife to embody such noble qualities as SHE did.
That is why SHE is revered as a gem among all women – the greatest among them. If there is any woman in this world worthy of worship, it is the Arahant Bhikkhuni Yashodhara, for SHE possessed such admirable and noble qualities, which are rarely seen in women.
By the power of this truth, just as darkness disappears when the sun rises, may all your troubles—whether human or non-human, visible or invisible—completely vanish……
Founded on a Binara full moon day—the day the Bhikkhuni Sangha was first established in the world—the Mahamevnawa Anagarika Monastery has offered the warmth of the dispensation, enabling female devotees to develop on the Dhamma path.
As a sister branch of the main monastery, the Udupila Anagarika Monastery was established, giving many lay devotees in the Udupila area the rare opportunity to accumulate merit in their lives.
If you are interested in learning the Dhamma in English, you may also visit the ‘Buddhist Nuns of Mahamevnawa’ in Colombo 7, where English Dhamma programs are conducted for both adults and children
Just as the Buddha appointed two chief disciples in the order of monks—Sāriputta and Moggallāna—he likewise named two women as his foremost disciples in the Bhikkhunī Sangha, the order of nuns. These were the bhikkhunīs Uppalavaṇṇā and Khemā: the former excelling in psychic power, the latter in wisdom.
Arahant Bhikkhunī Khemā (Foremost in Wisdom)
Through these sacred chapters, you will encounter the noble nuns who attained enlightenment during the lifetime of the Buddha. These exalted nuns realized the essence of the Buddha’s path—liberation through Arahantship and ultimate freedom. Their accounts of striving for enlightenment are truly remarkable. It is difficult to imagine how they practiced the Dhamma with such unwavering energy and determination, even at the risk of their own lives.……
In the days when India was the fortunate home of an Awakened One, a husband and wife lived there with their only daughter, Sāmāvatī, who was exceptionally beautiful. Their family life was happy and harmonious…..
Queen Sāmāvatī: Embodiment of Loving-Kindness
During the time of Buddha Padumuttara, Mahāpajāpati Gotamī Theri was born into a wealthy family in the city of Haṃsāvatī. On one occasion, while listening to a discourse by the Buddha, she witnessed a bhikkhunī being named by the Buddha as the foremost among the bhikkhunīs who attained enlightenment earliest (the bhikkhunī who was senior-most in the Order)….
Bhante, when I was in the human world, a monk visited our house and I prepared a chair for him to sit on. Raising my hands and putting my palms and fingers together, I saluted that monk respectfully. I also offered almsfood to him.
Because of these meritorious deeds, I have been born as a very beautiful devata and enjoy all the wonderful things that delight my heart.
Great Bhante, these are the meritorious deeds I did to have such a beautiful body that shines in all directions.
Second Throne Mansion(Giving always gives results)
You are young and surrounded by male and female deities. You look very happy with all the pleasures that you have. But in the daytime, you experience very painful feelings. What did you do in your previous life?
I was a cruel deer hunter living in the city of Rajagaha. I was always looking for something to kill. I did not have any pity on innocent beings.
I had a friend who was very compassionate, a disciple of the Supreme Buddha. He always said, “Do not do evil deeds my friend; do not be reborn in a bad world. If you wish to go to a happy world after death, then stop killing living beings.”
