The Thousand Buddhas Repentance Puja, held at BW Monastery on January 1, 2024, provided a spiritually enriching way to commence the new year. The event offered participants a unique opportunity to prostrate and repent before the thousand Buddhas of the previous kalpa, emphasizing the profound impact of these actions in eradicating wrongdoings and accumulating boundless merit. As attendees engaged in the repentance Puja, the swift counteraction of obstacles and wrongdoings in the cycle of birth and death was emphasized, promising vast meritorious benefits. The deliberate focus on eliminating non-virtuous karma from the past year added a significant dimension to the ceremony, making it a poignant and meaningful way to start anew.

The event not only served as a transformative practice but also set a spiritually uplifting tone for the beginning of the year, allowing participants to embrace the new year with a sense of purification, renewal, and positive intention!
