The essence of this practice is taking eight precepts and keeping them purely for 24 hours. When we take precepts, we explicitly promise to abstain for twenty-four hours from eight actions which include:(1) killing; (2) stealing; (3) sexual activity; (4) lying; (5) taking intoxicants; (6) eating after lunch (meaning we only eat lunch); (7) sitting on high or luxurious thrones or seats; (8) wearing ornaments, perfume, singing & dancing.Because this practice is motivated by bodhichitta it is especially powerful for purifying negativities, accumulating merit, and creating the cause for us to attain the unsurpassed happiness of enlightenment.If you have any questions about this retreat, please contact us at info@meditateinkl.org--------------------------------------------Fasting:Day 1: No breakfast, only 1 'precepts friendly' vegetarian lunch, and no food until dawn the next day.Day 2: Full fast: No food or drinks from dawn until the following day.
