Davis Shambhala Meditation Center

The Davis Shambhala Meditation Center offers practice and study in the lineage of Shambhala Buddhism unique in the world of Western Buddhism. This lineage combines the teachings of the Kagyü and Nyingma lineages of Tibetan Buddhism with the Shambhala view of living an uplifted life fully engaged with the world. Free meditation instruction is available at 9 a.m. Sunday 7:00 p.m. Thursday or by special appointment. We are part of Shambhala International a community of meditation centers founded in 1973 by Chögyam Trungpa Rinpoche a Tibetan Buddhist meditation master artist author and poet. Today the Shambhala tradition is led by Trungpa Rinpoche's son Sakyong Mipham Rinpoche. Our Northern California Shambhala senior dharma teacher is <a href="http://www.shambhala.org/teachers/pema/">Pema Chödrön</a>.

We welcome all and especially those who wish to practice and study mindfulness awareness and loving-kindness as inspired by the Buddhist and Shambhala paths.
