Anukampa Bhikkhuni Project
Spreading the Dhamma and developing a bhikkhuni residence in Oxford, UK
We rejoice in your presence
Anukampa means the wise compassion that alleviates suffering and its cause. It was this very quality that motivated the Buddha to teach.
Our monastics are dedicated to spreading the Buddha’s teachings for the benefit of all beings. We commit to inclusivity by welcoming everyone, including LGBTQIA+ people and those of every ethnicity, race and background, both to our events and as guests at our Anukampa Grove monastic residence.
We warmly invite you to participate in our friendly community. Deepen your practice by joining our Dhamma events—and find joy in contributing to the wellbeing of the Anukampa monastics.
Regular events
Enjoy lively discussions of the suttas, guided meditations, weekly blessings and more.
Special events
Nourish the heart with retreats and talks led by Venerable Candā and guest monastics.
Donations / offerings
Contribute to our work of sharing the Dhamma and support monastics’ daily requisites.
“One should associate only with the wise; With the wise one should foster intimacy. Having learnt the true Dhamma of the wise, one becomes better, never worse.”
