Helena Pauptit
When Helena came into contact with Buddhism, it felt like coming home. As a result, she continued to delve deeper into it. She experiences the combination of meditation and study as a valuable addition to each other. She sincerely wishes others to experience the joy and inner peace that this gives. It motivates her, among other things, to share the Dhamma. She is grateful for the guidance she received from Jotika Hermsen and Nynke Humalda.
Helena finds inspiration for sharing the Dhamma in early Buddhist texts. She translates this in an accessible way to contemporary examples. This allows it to be applied in a practical way to meditation and daily life.
She has followed courses and retreats with domestic and foreign teachers. She feels inspired by the early Buddhist discourses and for studying these texts she is in contact with Bhikkhunī Dhammadinnā.
Since 2017 Helena has led basic courses in vipassana meditation and sometimes an ongoing meditation group. She offers deepening in the Dhamma by leading study groups and various courses. She also leads online retreats from time to time.
