About This Event
Women who Inspire: Lighting the Way - The Extraordinary Story of the Dhammajarinee School. A free Event for women TM meditators
Presentation with Sarah Bence
Sarah has been instrumental in aiding the progress of this amazing school, an entirely free boarding school providing a loving, safe home and traditional education to over 1000 at-risk and orphaned girls. Sarah has been deeply inspired by the school’s Founder and Director, Dr. Aunampai Passakchai, working closely with the Director of Dhammajarinee Witthaya School - who is known as Acharn Yai, meaning “headmaster” in Thai.
The students deeply feel her nourishing and protective qualities. When asked about Acharn Yai, one student recently said, "She is like my second mother. From the very beginning when she picked me up to attend the school, she has given me everything. I feel so blessed by her and this school."
