Sunday Sept 9 Ven. Robina on ABC Compass “Key to Freedom”

On Sunday Sept 9 Ven. Robina will be at ABC 'compass'. The title of the program is “Key to Freedom”.

This program will be repeated on the Wed Sept 12 (8.30 am) and Sat Sept 15 (at 7.30 PM) at ABC 2. Also Liberation Prison Project Australia aims to launch the website http://www.robinacourtin.com/ by then.

Robina Courtin, an Australian-born Buddhist nun with a powerhouse personality, believes she has the key to freedom for some of the toughest criminals in the land. No bars are worse than the prison of one’s own mind, she argues.

Drawing on Buddhist teachings she founded the Liberation Prison Project to help transform prisoners’ lives so they can cope with incarceration and deal with the fundamental reasons they turned to crime.

Compass follows Robina Courtin as she visits inmates at Long Bay and Junee prisons in NSW. Along the way we trace her own story and examine her philosophy.
