Prayer Crystals

The Prayer Room at Kunzang Palyul Chöling is home to a large and beautiful collection of crystals. Crystals, (a traditional Vajrayana Buddhist symbol for the pure nature of mind), amplify, hold, and broadcast the spiritual energy of continuous prayer. These crystals play an especially vital role in the 24 Hour Prayer Vigil at KPC, on-going since 1985. The crystals are specifically placed to enhance the network of spiritual energy established by continuous prayer and the virtuous activities of teaching and practicing the Dharma.

To help spread that energy around the world, a collection of smaller crystals, carefully chosen for their qualities, have been placed in the Prayer Room for a full cycle of the moon.
