Karunagita
Karunagita first learned to meditate in Nepal in 1990 and was ordained in 2005. She lives in London and leads classes, study and retreats at the North London Buddhist Centre. She raised two children, wrote a book on Buddhist practice as a working mother and led retreats for mothers. She loves Buddhafield and values time at the Buddhafield Festival. She first came with her young children in the 1990s and hasn’t missed a festival since. She also came to Village as a family retreatant and later as a team member. She has led two Yatras for women+. Karunagita recently retired from her working life and is delighted by the prospect of two weeks of Total Immersion.
