Open House Shambhala Dharma Night

Our Open House Shambhala Dharma Night program is a great entry point for newcomers and suitable for meditation students at all levels of experience. It offers a friendly introduction to meditation practice, Shambhala Buddhist teachings and our community. Everyone is welcome, and participation is free of charge.

Introductory instruction is available at 7:00 PM.  Group practice runs from 7:00 to approximately 7:30 PM.

• 7:30 PM: Talk and Discussion

Typically, senior Shambhala Center members present introductory teachings in talk-and-discussion format or a prerecorded talk by a senior teacher within the broader Shambhala community is played and then followed up with live discussion.

Participants can connect with others who share their curiosity and interest.
