SATURDAY, DECEMBER 19
Time: 11 am - 5 pm
Teacher: Kadam Kyle
Cost: Free for members, $25 for non members
Powa practice is a deeply compassionate method to help ourselves and others through the death process. When people die, they enter the ‘bardo,’ or intermediate state, before their next rebirth. During this time, we can serve as a steward to support their move to a better life.
While death can be scary and uncontrolled for an ordinary person, a powa practitioner understands how to die in a meaningful and even joyful way. They understand how to transport or usher their mind or another’s mind to a pure land.
In particular, we will learn how to rely on Buddha Avalokiteshvara, the Buddha of Compassion, to aid this meditation. Everyone is welcome!
