Powa Ceremony is a beautiful and powerful ritual practice that enables us to benefit the recently deceased (within 49 days) by coming together as a group and making prayers and offerings on their behalf. Then, through the power of our compassionate intention, strong prayers, and concentration on the practice, we transfer the consciousness of the deceased to the Pure Land of the Buddha of Compassion so that they will experience a pure and lasting peace and finally be freed from the painful cycle of suffering and its causes. Powa is a beautiful, very auspicious practice and everyone is welcome to attend.
