It's an honor to have my work published in the Journal of the American Academy of Religion (where I was once an editorial assistant to the peerless @CTMathewes!). I hope this piece is useful for teaching about Buddhism and gender, among other things. academic.oup.com/jaar/articl…

🧵Three by @ChawlaSwati
1/ On Tibetan Buddhist Nuns in Exile:
#OnThisDay @DalaiLama was awarded #NobelPeacePrize, the only #Buddhist religious leader thus honored (#MLK nominated @thichnhathanh in '67).
Many associate #Tibet w/ him+ other monks in red robes--
What about nuns?

12/ To this day, most reporting on Tibet in Indian media is from a geopolitical+ defence perspective. Among my own students over the years, I have observed that the only associations about Tibet are of the Sino-Indian relations, monks (not nuns) in red robes, + @DalaiLama.

From @LangenbergAmy : “While a modern understanding of consent is largely absent from the suttas, one can find in canonical texts—in particular, the Vinaya or monastic discipline—another notion of consent, one based more on inner affective states than verbal permission.”
"The Buddha did not teach consent—but the Buddhist monastic code can help us understand better ways for responding to sexual harm." tricy.cl/3bzIJbB

I wrote a book...and @ColumbiaUP published it. Today’s the first time I’m seeing it “in the flesh.” This is the book! A long time coming...so grateful to everyone who helped me along the way.
