Buddhist Study Group

This is an open group for individuals interested in Tibetan Buddhism.  We will explore the Shambhala teachings of Chögyam Trungpa Rinpoche.

"Shambhala vision is rooted in the contemplative teachings of Buddhism, yet is a fresh expression of the spiritual journey for our time; it is available to practitioners of any tradition. Our lineage draws on the wisdom of the Kagyu and Nyingma schools of Tibetan Buddhism as inherited by founder of Shambhala, Chögyam Trungpa."

Participate in a weekly discussion of the readings.
This online course offered through Kootenay Shambhala Center "introduces students to the view and practice of the hinayana (foundation teachings). The readings, from the book Taming the Mind and Walking the Bodhisattva Path, which is based on a seminar taught by Sakyong Mipham Rinpoche, describe the path of renouncing confused existence and the joy of developing discipline on the path to liberation. Sakyong Mipham emphasizes the importance of understanding what we're doing, and presents the path in a vast, multiple lifetimes perspective."
