Chögyam Trungpa Rinpoche was a pioneer in bringing the Buddhist teachings of Tibet to the West and is credited for introducing many important Buddhist concepts into the English language and psyche in a fresh and unique way. He started the first Buddhist-inspired University in North America: The Naropa University; founded more than 100 meditation centers throughout the world; authored two dozen popular books on meditation, Buddhism, poetry, art and the Shambhala path of warriorship.
We will be commemorating the 24th anniversary of Chögyam Trungpa Rinpoche’s passing on April 4, 1987. The center will gather for readings, stories, video and end with a community Sadhana of Mahamudra Feast.*
*The Sadhana of Mahamudra Feast will be held instead of the usual community lunch. Everyone is welcome to the feast — which will be potluck.
For more information, or to volunteer to help with the feast, do a reading or share a story, please contact practice@dcshambhala.org
