Community
The Boulder Shambhala Center is home to a diverse community with a genuine connection to contemplative practice, basic goodness and the aspiration to manifest enlightened society. Everyone is welcome to attend our celebrations, practice events, classes and gatherings.
From the Process Team:
Dear Shambhala community members, past and present,
We warmly invite you to join us in Shambhala Community Conversations: open, community-wide discussions on important topics, designed to foster connection, reflection, insight, and action across Shambhala.
All are welcome in these conversations. In them, we share our diverse views and experiences in a gentle and caring group space. We connect and listen deeply, and share what themes emerge with Shambhala’s community and leadership, so that our voices enrich the ongoing conversation. (You can learn more about how Community Conversations are summarized and shared at https://shambhala-process-team.org/shambhala-community-conversations/#sharing.)
Please register for any upcoming Community Conversation here: https://shambhalaonline.org/community-engagement-initiative/ Registrations are first-come, first-served; each conversation is capped at around 20 participants.
