Buddhas of Confession

Buddhas of Confession: Or, the 35 Buddhas of Confession.

Each of the 35 Buddhas has at the same time the capacity to eliminate negative actions and obstacles to the practice of Dharma.

The recitation of the Sutra of Three Accumulations, the prayer of confession in front of 35 Buddhas is a particularly effective method to purify of any failures.

This is usually accompanied by prostrations.
