Ottawa Shambhala Centre BookClub 2024

Join us as we discuss In Love with the World, A Monk’s Journey Through the Bardos of Living and Dying, by Yongey Mingyur Rinpoche.

Mingyur Rinpoche tells the story and the difficulties he faced when leaving his monastery to go on a wandering retreat in India, and talks about his near-death experience.

The format of the bookclub is a facilitated discussion where everyone can raise points coming from the week’s chapter, and we reflect on them together. Reading commitment is short, usually about 10 pages per meeting.

Open to members of the Ottawa Shambhala Meditation Centre. This event takes place on Zoom, every other Wednesday, from 7pm to 8pm, starting on January 24, 2024.

An email has been sent to members about how to register.
