We think that we own our body and emotions. Venerable Hasapanna reminds us that our body and emotions are impermanent and we don’t own them. Venerable advises one way to help build wholesome qualities, habits and mental states is to remember that we are not permanent, our negative emotions won't last.

Many years ago, Venerable Hasapanna wanted to ordain as a nun in the Theravada tradition but the opportunity wasn't available. Fortunately Venerable Hasapanna is now reaching her 10th year as a fully ordained Theravadin Nun (Bhikkhuni). Full Theravadin Bhikkhuni ordination was arranged by Ajahn Brahmavamso 10 years ago to allow for equality. Venerable Hasapanna advocates equality and equity not just for women in Buddhism, but for many aspects of people's lives. Lastly Venerable also discusses how to deal with our perceptions of unfairness.
