The Tara Project
The work of being a dharma teacher asks immense commitment - to one’s own practice, to one’s ongoing development as a teacher, to one’s students, and to the lineage of the dharma stretching back to the Buddha. It is work of service, in support of practitioners accessing true freedom. Hemera supports Buddhist teachers to share the dharma from the depth of their insight, in skilled ways that meet practitioners where they are.
Inspired by the knowledge that at this moment in the history of Buddhism women’s voices in the dharma are more prominent than ever before, we are interested in the particular challenges that female teachers may face, as well as the particular gifts they can and do offer their students and the communities they serve. Based on our learning from conversations with almost 100 dharma teachers, we have developed a number of grant programs for teachers.
