About Dhamma Licchavi
Dhamma Licchavi meaning “Dhamma among Licchavis” is located in village Ladaura Pakri in northern Bihar about 12 km from Muzaffarpur and 40 km from Vaishali. The centre can accommodate about 40 male and 18 female students. Surrounded by long stretches of fertile agricultural fields with fruit trees it is an ideal place for serious meditation.
Vaishali, the first republic in the world, was spread over 110 km. The Buddha first granted permission for women to become Bikkhunis and recited the Ratan Sutta in this region.
