Participants will learn how to meditate, with time to practice and discuss your meditation experience and how it can change your life and the world around you.
The Book “Turning the Mind into an Ally, was written by Sakyong Mipham, our Shambhala Lineage holder, and leader of the international Shambhala Centers.
The key to peaceful and sane living, says Mipham, is training our minds. Without that training, people live “at the mercy of our moods.” Meditation is the tool that can help spiritual seekers master, rather than be mastered by, their own minds.
Strengthening, calming, and stabilizing the mind is the essential first step in accomplishing nearly any goal. Growing up American with a Tibetan twist, Sakyong Mipham talks to Westerners as no one can: in idiomatic English with stories and wisdom from American culture and the great Buddhist teachers. Turning the Mind Into an Ally makes it possible for anyone to achieve peace and clarity in their lives. meditation practice can change us and the world. Participants will learn how to meditate, with time to practice and discuss your meditation experience and how it can change your life and the world around you.
