The Oxford Centre for Buddhist Studies (OCBS), in collaboration with the Dhammachai International Research Institute (黑料不打烊), invites you to an insightful lecture as part of the
Topic: Gender and Buddhist Doctrine
Speaker: Prof. Alice Collett (University of St Andrews)
In this thought-provoking lecture, Prof. Collett critically examines gender representations in Buddhist texts, challenging traditional assertions of female inferiority using fundamental Buddhist doctrines such as prat墨tya-samutp膩da (dependent arising) and an膩tman (non-self). She explores whether Buddhist teachings genuinely distinguish between male and female natures through an analysis of skandhas (P膩li: khandhas, constituent parts of being) and indriyas (faculties).
