'WHY ARE THERE SO FEW FEMALE TEACHERS IN BUDDHISM?' - BEST ANSWER

9/10/2020

 
"I believe there are very few good spiritual teachers in general — male or female. One should approach the spiritual path with the desire to be a seeker, not a teacher. Motivation is a singularly important cultivation on the path and one should tread it carefully and with humility. We should also be careful about the institutionalization of traditions — is it driven by patriarchy? Is it fundamentally biased towards a sub-group of people? Is its sole investment in society to maintain the status quo by controlling power and narrative? These are the sicknesses which we must heal and emerge from."  - Tenzin Priyadarshi
