This series with Venerable Ani Losang is from June 3-24. We will learn about the Purification Practices in the Gelug Lineage. Purification practices have the power to remove obstacles and negative karma preventing us from realizing the path. In this series of practices, we learn about their unique characteristics as well as why and how to practice them.
There are four topics in this series. Tonight is session 2.
Tonight, we will be guided by Venerable Ani Losang on the 35 Buddha Practices of Purification: Prostrations to the Thirty-five Confession Buddhas with recitation of the Bodhisattva’s Confession of Moral Downfalls from the Sutra of Three Heaps is a powerful method to purify harmful actions we have done in the past. In addition, this practice clears away obstacles to our practice and opens the mind to gain realizations on the path.
