Khajit

Khajit began practising with the FWBO in 1986, at age 19, and was ordained in 1998. He came to Buddhism through the arts, Western philosophy, and participation in alternative communities. He is a Gerontologist who currently works with the families of those with brain-impairing conditions such as Alzheimer's Disease. "For me, Dharma practice is about living an authentic life. In the face of our own crap, how do we live a more open and free life? The Dharma offers a way of creative engagement with ourselves and the world."

Khajit is part of the North American Ordination Team for men.
