Event Details

Nyung Ne
Fasting and Purification Retreat – 2 sets

Guided by Lama Tenzin Phuntsok

Nyung Ne is a fasting and purification practice, during which retreatants meditate on compassion and purification in sets consisting of two days each.
In a very short time, the practice of Nyung Ne helps to actively purify negative karma and to accumulate merit by opening the heart to compassion to all beings.
While prostrating and reciting the mantra of Avalokiteshvara, the suffering of all beings is pacified and alleviated, throughout the six realms. By calling to the deity with love and compassion, and invoking his blessings, peace and compassion spread throughout the entire world of phenomena as well as into our own heart and mind.
It is said that doing only one single set of this powerful practice closes the door to the lower realms and that the completion of eight sets opens the door to a rebirth in the Pure Land of Dewachen.

Lama Tenzin Phuntsok will guide us through this practice.  He is the referent Lama In Europe of the Ripa Lineage and a highly experienced Master of Rituals.

Prerequisite: Refuge in the Three Jewels .

This unique practice on compassion is essential in Buddhism and open to practitioners from all Buddhist schools.

Registrations start next week
