- **Event Name**: Longlife Merit & Wisdom Buddha Amitayus Retreat
- **Event Start and End Date**: Sun, 01 Feb, 2026 at 02:30 am – Sun, 01 Feb, 2026 at 05:45 am
- **Event Description**: In this special one day retreat we have the opportunity to increase our lifespan, merit and wisdom through the special meditation practice of Buddha Amitayus. Our human life is our most precious possession because it gives us the opportunity to improve ourselves and attain the supreme happiness of enlightenment. We therefore need a long and healthy life. To engage successfully in spiritual practice we also need wisdom, as well as the merit or good fortune that gives our mind the strength to support the growth of inner realizations. 

By engaging in Amitayus practice, we can develop these qualities and eventually attain the deathless state of enlightenment. We can also use this practice to help remove obstacles endangering the lives of others, especially our close friends and family.
