A White Christmas Vajrasattva Purification Retreat
December 23, 2021 @ 6:30 pm - December 25, 2021 @ 12:00 pm
$25
What are we wishing for during the holidays? There is nothing greater than a peaceful heart; warm, friendly feelings towards others; joy and contentment. If our mind is pure, nothing can keep us from fulfilling our spiritual wishes.
When human beings develop a sincere wish to purify negative karma in their own mind, all the Buddhas appear as Buddha Vajrasattva. Vajrasattva’s path is the practice of taking stock of one’s own negative actions and promising to improve. Our Resident Teacher, Kadam Keli Vaughan will give an introduction to Meditation and Recitation of Solitary Vajrasattva on Thursday, December 23.
This special retreat opportunity is perfect for anyone wishing to make their Christmas holiday align with their wish to purify negative habits and tendencies.
