​

The Eight Precepts Retreat is a set of eight pure precepts compassionately established by the Buddha for lay practitioners to observe for one day and one night. By upholding these precepts, one temporarily withdraws from worldly affairs, purifies body and mind, nurtures wholesome roots, and deepens the cultivation of merit and wisdom on the path toward liberation.
We sincerely invite everyone to join in the collective practice of the Eight Precepts, to uphold the precepts together, purify the mind, receive the Buddha’s blessings, create wholesome affinities, and advance together on the path of cultivation.
