SHAMBHALA TRAINING LEVEL II: BIRTH OF THE WARRIOR
with Frank Ryan.
Mr. Ryan began teaching the Shambhala Levels twenty-five years ago in Chicago. Since that time he has presented Shambhala Buddhist teachings in Western Canada, Ireland, and throughout New England. A student of both the Ven Chogyam Trungpa Rinpoche and Sakyong Mipham Rinpoche, Frank and his wife Susan currently live and work in both Boston and New Haven.

Meditation practice allows us to observe how we create a cocoon of habits to mask our fear. We begin to appreciate that there is no fundamental obstacle to experiencing basic goodness. This second weekend of Shambhala Training intensifies the discipline of meditation practice, enabling participants to work with obstacles that may have arisen as meditation practice develops. We also explore how habitual ways of thinking and experiencing obscure the raw brilliance of the world we live in and our own genuineness and tenderness. Finally, we learn how to work with the fear that occurs when we move forward out of these habitual patterns.
