100: Suvarnaprabha On Becoming Celibate Towards The End of Her Life

Our friend Suvarnaprabha from San Francisco has just passed away. She had been living with advanced stage cancer for the past couple of years and writing the most amazing blog about it:crapivegotcancer.blogspot.com/Some months ago she took the step of becoming an Anagarika within the context of the Triratna Buddhist Order - someone who commits herself fully to a life of stillness, simplicity, contentment and celibacy. Here she speaks candidly and movingly about her reasons for that and what draws her to make such a declaration in the face of her own mortality.Read Suvarnaprabha's book on celibacy and Buddhism for free here:http://thebuddhistcentre.com/highlights/suvarnaprabha-writings-celibacy-ebookSubscribe to our podcast in iTunes: https://itunes.apple.com/podcast/the-buddhist-centre-online/id498033013
