Emily Bower
Acharya Emily Bower started practicing in the Shambhala community in 1987, the year that Chogyam Trungpa Rinpoche passed away. She met Sakyong Mipham Rinpoche in 1991, when he came to teach in Berkeley, CA, where she was living at the time. She became his student then and has served as his editor for various projects including his first book, Turning the Mind into an Ally.
She has studied kyudo with Kanjuro Shibata Sensei and she is a lifelong member of the Dorje Kasung. In 1991, she joined the staff of Karme Choling, where she lived for three years. She is currently traveling and teaching at Shambhala Centers--with no fixed address for the time being.
