Each of us, without exception, has “Buddha Nature,” but it takes tremendous effort to develop it, so why should we do it? Ven. Sangye Khadro will encourage us to see the point of this wholehearted enterprise.

About Ven. Sangye Khadro
​Originally from California, Ven. Sangye Khadro (Kathleen McDonald) ordained as a Buddhist nun at Kopan Monastery in 1974 and took the full (bhikshuni) ordination in 1988. While studying at Nalanda Monastery in France in the 1980s, she helped to start the Dorje Pamo Nunnery. Ven. Sangye Khadro has studied Buddhism with many great masters including  Lama Zopa Rinpoche, Lama Yeshe, His Holiness the Dalai Lama, Geshe Ngawang Dhargyey, and Khensur Jampa Tegchok.

She began teaching in 1979 and was a resident teacher at Amitabha Buddhist Centre in Singapore for 11 years. Since then she has been teaching Buddhism and meditation in countries around the world. She followed the Masters Program at  Lama Tsong Khapa Institute in Italy from 2008 – 2013, and was resident teacher at the FPMT center in Denmark from 2016-2017. Ven. Sangye Khadro has authored several books, including the best-selling, How to Meditate, now in its 17th printing, which has been translated into thirteen languages.
