Shambhala School of Buddhist Studies
Note: Our main path of practice and study, The Way of Shambhala, includes elements of the Shambhala School of Buddhist Studies. These programs can also be taken separately from the Way of Shambhala, but it is suggested that one have prior experience with meditation and study at the Shambhala Center, most preferably completing the first cycle of The Way of Shambhala .
The path of the practitioner of dharma is rich with opportunities for self-examination and discovery. Beginning with looking at one's own experience directly in meditation, the practitioner learns about the ways the mind works. Through meditation, the practitioner penetrates confusion to experience the naturalness of being awake. Through studying the wisdom of the lineage, the great practitioners dating back to the Buddha, the student is challenged and inspired to discover a direct view of the nature of mind and reality. While there are many opportunities to join with others on the path for practice and study, the journey is personal.
Karma and the Nidanas (6 Thursday night classes: July 17 - August 21 from 7-9 PM ) examines the complex workings of karma and how to untangle ourselves from the web of confusion, fueled by negative emotions and habitual patterns.
Lojong (6 Thursday night classes: September 11 - October 16 7-9 PM ) introduces the mahayana slogans of Atisha, a 10th century Indian Buddhist master whose teachings left a deep imprint on all Tibetan lineages. More to be scheduled soon...stay tuned! To learn more about the Shambhala School of Buddhist Studies, click here. --
