This seven-day percepts transmission included the lay practitioners participating in ceremonies and teachings under the guidance of Buddhist masters. They systematically studied the Bodhisattva precepts, the rules for conduct, rituals for worship, and etiquette such as wearing Buddhist robes. Additionally, through repentance practices, the lay practitioners confessed their past transgressions, purifying their bodies and minds and eliminating obstacles.
