April 15th marks the anniversary of Buddha Shakyamuni demonstrating the attainment of enlightenment in 589 B.C.E. This is an extremely important day in the Buddhist calendar because our actions are 100,000 times more powerful than on other days.
Kadampa Buddhists celebrate with a special purification and fasting retreats in Kadampa Buddhist Centers worldwide based on the practice Drop of Essential Nectar an annual fasting and purification retreat performed in conjunction with a practice of the Buddha of Compassion.
It is very powerful for purifying negative karma of body, speech, and mind, and for pacifying strong delusions such as desirous attachment and hatred. It is also a special method for receiving blessings and improving our experience of love, compassion, and bodhichitta.
