Nyungnay is one of our most precious Kadampa dharma jewels and as a center practice it comes around just once a year – on Buddha’s Enlightenment Day.

We can spend two days with thousand-armed (eleven-faced) Avalokiteshvara – ‘Mahakaruna’ – the nature of our Guru’s great compassion, making exquisite offerings, praises, and prostrations and thereby accumulating huge merit, purifying vast negativity for ourselF and others and receive the most powerful blessing to propel ourself swiftly along our path to enlightenment.

​

Wrapped within the practice of Mahayana Precepts, it involves fasting and making three sessions of prostrations, with the sadhana ‘Drop of Essential Nectar‘, over two days.

Usually, the second day is accompanied by a full fast, although strongly recommended, this is not compulsory.

Everyone is welcome to join us for this special retreat.
