“The point ofShambhala-Training is to get out of the cocoon, which is the shyness and aggression in which we have wrapped ourselves.”  —Chogyam Trungpa

In this program we learn to allow our hearts to open so that we can communicate fully with the world. Mit Vertrauen in das Gute im Grunde und dem Mut, den scharfen Rand der Realität zu erleben, Wir gehen mit Sanftmut voran, gesteigertes Bewusstsein, und Neugier auf die Welt, wie es ist. We discover that we can extend ourselves to others fully and with kindness.

The program includes breakfast on Saturday and Sunday and a reception on Sunday.
