  • Vajrakilaya Practice Day: Saturday, February 2, 2019, 10am – 5pm
    Vajrakilaya practice is traditionally offered prior to Losar. It is especially helpful in purifying our obstacles and karma from the previous year, clearing the slate for us to begin the new year with positivity and fewer hindrances in our practices and intentions.

  • Losar Nyung-nay Retreat: February 9, 2019, 7:00am – February 11, 2019, 7:30am
    This fasting ritual is a swift and powerful means to clear away obstacles to our physical and mental well-being.  As we abide in the retreat, we use our body to offer prostrations, our speech to recite mantra, and our mind to focus on bodhichitta. Nyung-nay brings the practitioner to the essence of the supreme secret of Avalokiteshvara, the compassion of all buddhas. Inquiries:  [email protected]
