Center-Talk Mission Statement

The purpose of center-talk is to provide a forum for communication and discussion amongst the Shambhala leadership internationally in order to support Sakyong Mipham Rinpoche in propagating the teachings of Shambhala and in order to promote the establishment of enlightened society.

Topics

The discussions will be restricted to topics related to the administration and leadership of our Centers , development and support of practice and study, and the continuing exploration of cultural and societal issues. Management of the discussions and communications in order to adhere to the above mentioned topics will be coordinated from the central office, with support from all participants. It is hoped and expected that the participants in Center-talk will be committed to sharing the information with their Shambhala Councils and Executive Committees on an ongoing basis.

Participation

Membership in center-talk is comprised of Shambhala Council members, Dharmadhatu Executive Committee members, and Shambhala Training Executive Committee members or their designated representatives. All Shambhala International staff will be members. There is no restriction on the number of administrative participants from any one Center, although it is hoped that all Centers can have at least one person on-line.
