For women and LGBTIQA+ finding a place to ordain and stay as a lay person or monastic, where they can learn and study, is often a huge challenge, especially in the Tibetan tradition. Ayya Yeshe started a unique project to create a monastery where the four-fold community can stay and learn, aiming for environmental justice, to aid marginalized communities, intersectional feminism that includes and welcomes men who wish to be allies and compatriots of women. Much still needs to be done! If you want to support Ayya Yeshe please consider donating:

Sorry Ayya, I was reading rather poorly:

Nun of 21 years, Ayya Yeshe, speaks about women’s awakened potential, and sharing the inspiring stories of awakened female saints and the sacred feminine present in everyone. Reclaiming the sacred feminine is not just for women, but also for men. Men also need to reclaim their own emotional life and capacity for feeling, sensitivity and love. It is about reviving the balance and intuitive wisdom in all of us
