Understanding Karma: The Power of Purification & Mini Retreat
Karma, the law of cause and effect, is at the heart of our experiences in our daily lives. In the first part of the workshop, we will explore the profound teachings on karma, and how our thoughts, words, and actions shape our future. We will gain insight into the four factors that establish a karmic seed: The intention, the preparation, the action itself, and the completion of the action. Understanding karma empowers us to take responsibility for our choices and to transform our lives.
Purification is a powerful practice that allows us to cleanse and purify the negativities that weigh us down. In the second part of the workshop, we will look at the Four Powers of purification: Regret, Reliance, the Opponent Force, and Promise. Discover how these transformative powers can purify our negative karma, free us from its effects, and create the conditions for positive change. Through guided meditations and teachings, learn practical techniques to release regrets, cultivate reliance on positive sources, and establish strong resolutions for a pure mind and heart.
In addition, we are offering a guided mini-retreat that will focus on the practice of Buddha Vajrasattva. Vajrasattva is a manifestation of enlightened wisdom and compassion, specifically associated with purification. Through mantra recitation, visualization and meditation, we will engage in the powerful practice of Vajrasattva to cleanse our minds of negativities and to pave the way for spiritual growth and transformation. This guided retreat will offer a precious opportunity to deepen our connection with this enlightened being and to experience the purifying and blissful power of Buddha Vajrasattva.
Join us for "Understanding Karma: The Power of Purification & Mini Retreat" to gain profound insights into the workings of karma and the transformative power of purification. Let us embark on this transformative journey together, cleansing our minds, purifying our karma, and creating the causes for a brighter and more fulfilling future.
