Upcoming retreat: POWA

Post by Pårl »

HI all

I noticed on the calendar of my local temple, that there is a 5-day POWA retreat in April. I've seen the word POWA used in many places on this site.

Please could someone give me a brief introduction into POWA and make an educated guess about the content of this upcoming retreat?

Thanks

Paul

Is that the same as Phowa?
Happy Pride month to my queer dharma siblings!

What do you see when you turn out the lights?
