SUMMARY:Vajrasattva Purification Retreat via Zoom
DESCRIPTION:Everyone Welcome. \nPurification practice ensures that the mental environment within which we plant the seeds of meditation is pure and level — not like stony ground. \nAll Buddhas appear in the form of Buddha Vajrasattva to purify the minds of living beings.  For this reason the practice of meditation and recitation of Vajrasattva is superior to other purification practices. By relying upon Vajrasattva practice\, we become happier and and find it easier to experience ever purer states of mind such as love\, compassion\, and wisdom. \nThe main body of the practice is concentrating on removing the negative karma in our mind by applying the Four Powers: \n\nReliance on the Compassion\, Wisdom\, and Power of Enlightened Beings\nRegret for Engaging in Harm and Negativity\nThe Virtuous Opponent Force of the Mantra of Purification\nThe Promise to Refrain from Negative Habits of Body\, Speech\, and Mind\n\nAn introduction to the practice will be presented by our Resident teacher\, Kadam Keli Vaughan\, on Saturday\, December 26 at 9am. This will help both beginners and experienced meditators set a good intention for the retreat. \nEach meditation session lasts 90 minutes and includes some instruction on the practice\, as well as preparatory prayers and time for mantra recitation. Saturday and Sunday sessions will be guided. Monday sessions will be self-guided for those who are familiar with the practice. The final session each day will be the heart practice of Kadampa Buddhism – Heart Jewel Prayers. \nYou are welcome to join us for the entire retreat\, or to drop in for any session you have time for.  Any meditation retreat becomes more qualified and beneficial if sequential sessions are attended. \nJoin Zoom retreat:\nhttps://us02web.zoom.us/j/88401540998\nMeeting ID: 884 0154 0998 \n  \nRetreat Schedule: \nSaturday (guided)\nSession 1 Introduction to Purification Practice 9:00-10:30am\nSession 2 11:00am-12:30pm\nSession 3 2:00-3:30pm\nSession 4 4:00-5:00pm Heart Jewel \nSunday (guided)\nSession 1  9:00-10:30am\nSession 2 11:00am-12:30pm\nSession 3 2:00-3:30pm\nSession 4 4:00-5:00pm Heart Jewel \nMonday (self-guided) \nSession 1  9:00-10:30am\nSession 2 11:00am-12:30pm\nSession 3 2:00-3:30pm\nSession 4 4:00-5:00pm Heart Jewel \n  \nFees:  You can donate HERE.\n \n$5 for each session. \n$25 for whole retreat. \nFree for monthly members.
