About this transmission: - Show IntroductionAbout the nyungne practice The fasting practice of Nyungne is a well known profound purification practice. The meditation centers on the recitations of prayers and mantras, and visualizations of the Thousand-Armed Chenrezig, the embodiment of all the buddhas' loving-kindness and compassion. Translated as 'abiding in the fast', Nyungne is said to be effective in the healing of illness, the nurturing of compassion, and the purification of negative karma. One set of Nyungne consists of two days of practice. The first day is a preliminary day, and the second day is the actual fasting day. One takes the Mahayana Sojong vows, with a total of 8 precepts, and on the preliminary day, one eats only one meal, with drinks for the entire day. The next day is a complete fast with no meals or drinks, and one must also observe silence. After this 3 days Transmission in Delhi, we will do 8 sets of Nyungne one after the other.
The retreat will take place in Palpung Sherabling.
One can choose to do one, two or more of the eight Nyungnes. It is not compulsory to do the 8.
On the 17th day (after the 8 Nyungnes) we will perform a half day Puja

- Stealing or taking that which is not given.
- Sexual activity.
- Lying.
