Скачать или смотреть The Controversy Over Nuns (Bhikkhuni) in Buddhism

In the past few decades a controversy has arisen over the restarting of nuns' orders in two schools of Buddhism. We will discuss the controversy as it relates to the Theravāda school, and note in passing that a similar controversy exists in Tibetan Buddhism as well. We will look a little at the history involved, at why it has become so controversial, and at how we might approach the problem in the present day.

Thanks to Upayadhi for her kind help in researching this video!
