Shambhala Open House Every Tuesday Evening, 7 to 9 pm Our weekly Open House meditation is an open door to the public, a gateway to connect with the view and practice of sitting meditation in a simple and direct format with other meditators, both beginners and experienced. Please join us on any Tuesday evening for a free introduction to Shambhala. We begin with a short supplication chant to the Shambhala lineage, followed by 20 minutes of sitting meditation, 10 minutes of walking meditation and then 20 minutes more of sitting practice. Individual instruction is always available, free of charge. Open House includes introductions and, after meditation, informal community discussion with refreshments, hosted by students of Sakyong Mipham Rinpoche and Ani Pema Chödrön. Sunday Morning Shambhala Talks Second Sunday of Every Month, 9 am to noon You are invited to join us on the second Sunday of each month for a free introduction to Shambhala, presented by senior students of the Vidyadhara Chögyam Trungpa Rinpoche and Sakyong Mipham Rinpoche. Sunday Morning Shambhala Talks include an opportunity for questions and answers, discussion and an informal reception with refreshments, as well as an opportunity to meet members and friends of the Tamalpais Shambhala Meditation Group.

Meditation Retreats Meditation retreat intensives are an opportunity to deepen our contemplative experience for a longer period of time. Dathün, or month-long retreat, is a popular retreat program unique to Shambhala in that it offers an opportunity to deepen our meditation practice and training in a completely supportive environment. Retreat intensives are held at Shambhala's practice centers around the world and are staffed by trained, authorized Shambhala meditation instructors. For more information, visit the Shambhala program page. If we may assist you in locating a retreat suitable and convenient to your practice, please contact us via email or at (415) 457-4157. |
