Community

The vision of Shambhala is based on the wisdom and compassion of the meditation tradition. It proclaims that our lives are workable, and even wonderful. Through the path of meditation we can touch our inherent sanity, and by sharing that with others, we can create an enlightened society. The Shambhala community is a support for those who aspire to follow this path.

The Victoria Shambhala Meditation Centre is part of an international community of 165 meditation centres founded by Chögyam Trungpa Rinpoche and led by Sakyong Mipham Rinpoche. The Shambhala Buddhist path, unique in the world of Western Buddhism, combines the teachings of the Kagyu and Nyingma traditions of Tibetan Buddhism with the Shambhala view of living an uplifted life, fully engaged with the world.

Programs in Buddhist teachings, meditation and other contemplative disciplines are offered as well as free individual meditation instruction. For an overview of the Shambhala path, please visit the Shambhala International website (www.shambhala.org).
