In these sessions we will learn about – and practice – a beautiful purification ritual that helps clear away difficulties in developing faith and conviction in Dharma and in making progress on the stages of the path to enlightenment. As with all purification practices, it also prevents our future suffering by purifying the negativity that comes from our past non-virtuous actions (i.e., negative karma).
Using recorded prayers as our guide, we will engage in three types of traditional practices: prostration, purification and dedication. The centerpiece of the practice entails visualizing the Thirty-five Confession Buddhas and practicing purification in their presence.
An explanation of the practice and its purpose will be given in the first two sessions. In the third session, we will engage in guided meditation with prayers and prostrations. There will be opportunities for questions and discussion.
Note: the practice is suitable for all physical abilities.
$25, 1/2 price for Foundation Program members, free for Benefactors. Suitable for all level of practitioners.
