Buddha’s Enlightenment Day
Nyungne Compassion Fasting Retreat
Intro Talk, April 13 with Kadam Amy
Retreat, April 14 and 15
Nyungne or compassion fasting retreat is a special purification retreat performed in conjunction with the practice of Thousand-armed Avalokiteshvara, the Buddha of Compassion. It is very powerful for purifying negative karma, pacifying strong delusions, receiving blessings, and increasing our love, compassion and bodhichitta. In this retreat, we make prayers for all suffering to completely cease.
