Stars at Dawn is a retelling of ancient legends of the women in Gautama Buddha’s intimate circle. Lesser-known stories from Sanskrit and Pali sources are for the first time woven into an illuminating, coherent narrative. Interspersed with original insights, fresh interpretations, and bold challenges to the status quo, these stories invite us to open our minds to a new understanding of women’s roles in the Buddha’s life and in early Buddhism. 
Books will be available for purchase after the lecture.

Wendy Garling has taught women’s spirituality, focusing on Buddhist traditions for more than 20 years. She is a Tibetan Buddhist practitioner and authorized Dharma  teacher.
