THE ROAR OF 358 BEGINS NOW
Today, a powerful assembly of 358 monks in Dehradun unites for a massive 7-day Yamantaka retreat. As the lunar year draws to a close, we enter the sacred Gutor period—the time for casting away all obstacles, illnesses, and negativities of the past. The collective energy of 358 chanting voices is a thunderous force, building a “vajra fence” of protection for the New Year to come. We dedicate this practice with fierce compassion to clear the energy of the “Old Century”:
“By the thunderous voice of 358 Monks, chanting the Ancient Song of Power! We summon the presence of Yamantaka, the Diamond Terrifier, the Slayer of Death!
HUM!.
With the weapon of ultimate wisdom, we smash the iron walls of suffering! We burn the karma of the Old Century into ash! We sever the roots of all fear and attachment! I dedicate this exploding energy to all sentient living beings— May every obstacle be crushed! May every life force be invincible! May the shadows of the past be utterly destroyed! By this Truth, may all beings rise—fearless, protected, and triumphant—into the clear light of freedom!” Join us in spirit as we clear the path. May all beings find peace.
