Shambhala Training
Levels I - V |
|
Shambhala Training is a series of contemplative workshops, suited for both beginning and experienced meditators. The simple and profound technique of mindfulness and awareness is the basis of a secular path of meditation, which can benefit people of any spiritual tradition and way of life. Shambhala Training is the study and practice of Shambhala warriorship—the tradition of human bravery and leadership. This path shows how to take the challenges of daily life in our modern society as opportunities for both contemplative practice and social action.
The "Heart of Warriorship" workshops are presented as a complete group as Levels I through V to be taken consecutively. Check our calendar for the next Level I. |
