" I create ecstasy in my world. I know who I am and I am willing to declare this to the world. I am a star ! "
Vajrasattva Buddha
Sweeping away the obstacles, bad karma, bad luck and negativities of the old year, going into a new year with a purified “clean slate”, is an important lunar New Year practice in Buddhism. Although it’s often associated with Losar and Lunar New Year, for those who practice according to the Gregorian calendar, the same purification routine is not only beneficial — it is essential to progressive practice.
