The Female Buddha: Discovering the Heart of Liberation and Love, is a book of contemplations inspired by the goddess of compassion, Guanyin, and the words of women teachers from the time of the Buddha to the present day. Deborah will share photographs and verses for us to contemplate and reflect on together.

The inspiration for the book originally came in a dream and has led to continually unfolding insights and wonderful connections.  We will explore the role of sacred words and images as sources of wisdom, creativity and compassion in our lives.
