This special fasting and purification practice is traditionally done by Kadampa Centers worldwide in April. It is a special opportunity to purify negativity and pacify our bad mental habits, such as strong attachment and anger.\u00a0 It can also greatly improve our experiences of love, compassion and bodhichitta.<\/p>\n
The retreat is done in conjunction with Thousand-Armed Avalokiteshvara practice. It involves taking the Mahayana precepts ( a promise to avoid all non virtue for 24 hours), conjoined with the practice of prostrations.<\/p>\n
You may engage in one or two days of the retreat but in order to participate you must take precepts each morning you participate.<\/p>\n
Please note this is an unguided retreat.<\/p>\n
