Four of the nuns from Lerab Ling recently took siksamana ordination at Pu Yi Yuan Monastery in Taiwan. The ordination and training was arranged especially for 6 nuns from the Tibetan Buddhist tradition.
A Siksamana (Skt) (Sikkhamana (Pali), Gelobma (Tibetan)) is a female nun who holds the novice vows plus six additional regulations for two years, while also training in 292 precepts in preparation to become a bhikshuni (a fully ordained nun).
