SUMMARY:Ven Canda teaching on Sanghamitta Day
DESCRIPTION:\n\nSanghamitta day is held annually in honour of Ven.
 Bhikkhuni Sanghamitta\, the fully enlightened (Arahant) daughter of
 Buddhist Emperor Asoka\, who\, along with her brother Mahinda\, went to Sri
 Lanka\, to establish the Bhikkhuni Sangha in that country. She arrived by
 sea\, carrying a sapling of the same Bodhi tree under which the Buddha
 awakened to the Four Noble Truths. The sapling was planted at Anuradhapura
 in 288 BC and is the oldest known living tree. Sanghamitta day is one of
 the six major Buddhist holidays and celebrates the great contribution of
 women to Buddhism.\n&nbsp\;\nPlease see here for the full day's itinerary.
