trans affirmations in many faiths

Trans people exist throughout the world and find strength and liberation, as well as aspects of oppression, through many spiritual paths.  In a world of necessary inter-religious dialogue this is an encouraging reality. 
Here are a few different features which may be of interest...


GIN-SSOGIE - the Global Interfaith Network on Sex, Sexual Orientation, Gender Identity and Expression - bringing together LGBTI+ people from different faiths, centred as an organsation in the Global South
Transfaith - US based organisation, (multi-tradition, multi-racial, multi-gender) working to support transgender spiritual/cultural workers and their leadership in community and partnership with others
Transfaith (Judaism)  - check out the many links and resources
Islam
Inside the world's first trans mosque - article and link to video introduction to Channel 4 UK documentary

Hinduism
Recognition of transgender people is part of HIndu tradition  - Akhandadhi Das 'Thought for the Day' on the UK Today progrmme

Buddhism
Here below is a prayer sent to me by my Buddhist trans friend Michelle McNamara and put in into this form by me.
