Ring Out 2020 & Refresh for 2021
with Venerable Robina Courtin
Thursday, December 31st
6:00pm - 8:00pm PST
Presented online via Zoom. Registration is required, details below.
As we face another challenging year, Ven Robina Courtin will lead us
through the powerful Vajrasattva practice to refresh our minds and set us up with a clean slate. She’ll describe the practice within the framework of the four opponent powers, explaining how each of the four purifies the four ways that karma ripens. For those of us wishing for full enlightenment, sooner than later, this purification practice gets us closer to it. Using the Vajrasattva method to clean up one’s mistakes at year-end will prepare those of us who have a habit of making New Year's Resolutions. From this
two-hour experience with Ven Robina, we will come away with a new perspective on resolutions altogether.
