24 hour Tara Prayers
December 31st – January 1st
Location: 3324 17th Street, San Francisco, CA 94110
Free event
Do something with great meaning over the New Year's time. Join us in this special method of Tara chanting to wrap the entire world in requests to Living Buddha Tara.
We will gather together at the end of this year to ask her to please take away the obstacles in this world and help everyone find the happy, meaningful life they long for. Whether you engage in all six sessions or just one, please join in.
The words of the praises are the speech of Buddha and are very powerful if we have faith, whether we fully understand them or not, we're creating good causes for greater understanding and happiness later.
We repeat these prayers every four hours during the 24 hours (see schedule below).
We will have tea and refreshments available throughout the retreat.
Everyone is welcome, no experience necessary.
