Powa Prayers

February 21, 2016 @ 5:00 pm - 6:00 pm

Avalokiteshvara (4-armed) 2 with offerings and backThrough practicing transference of consciousness — known as ‘powa’ — with faith, compassion, and concentration we can transfer the consciousness of those recently deceased to a higher rebirth or to the Pure Land of a Buddha. The Powa Ceremony can be done either by a group of practitioners or individually on behalf of one or more deceased persons, or countless deceased beings. By engaging in this practice we also create a great collection of virtue, which will lead us into the pathway to a Buddha’s Pure Land.

All chanted prayers are free.
