A Center for Meditation and Study Programs in Modern Buddhism

Celebrating Enlightenment 

Nyungnay Purification Retreat 

Tuesday, April 14 & Wednesday, April 15th

6:30 am - 4:15 pm (both days)

with Buddhist monk and Resident Teacher, Kelsang Tabkay

Donations welcomed

In celebration of Buddha’s Enlightenment Day we will engage in a special purification practice emphasizing compassion for all living beings.

The retreat involves two days of fasting and prostrations. This is a very powerful retreat for purifying negative karma, pacifying strong delusions, receiving blessings, and increasing our love, compassion, and bodhichitta.

Please Note: In order to attend any of the Nyungnay retreat sessions during the day you will need to attend Precepts first at 6:30 am. If you attend both days, you will need to take Precepts both days at 6:30 am at the Center
