"Have confidence to go beyond hesitation."

The Shambhala and Tibetan Buddhist traditions hold a core body of teachings on the wisdom and practice of protection. Essentially this is protection against confusion and wrong views and the resulting upheaval these manifest in our personal lives and society. Sakyamuni Buddha was attacked by maras, or strong mind habitual forces, immediately prior to his enlightenment. How did he face these? Protection teachings constitute a profound and practical path of awareness and intelligence providing us the strength and ability to meet any circumstances of our lives with fearlessness and compassion. Chogyam Trungpa uniquely emphasized a path of dharma protection understanding and practices known as the Dorje Kasung. This class will explore these along with traditional Buddhist and Shambhala teachings.  

The class is suggested for those with some grounding in mediation and all longtime meditators and Shambhala students.
