In this PUBLIC TALK and workshop, Sakyong Mipham Rinpoche will teach on how to apply the principles of Shambhala, an ancient Buddhist enlightened society, to living in our world today. The Shambhala teachings show us how to bring the wisdom of the Buddhist tradition into our lives and to contribute to a good society.
During the MEDITATION WORKSHOP there will be further talks on Shambhala principles, meditation instruction, guided meditation, walking meditation and contemplation exercises lead by the Sakyong as well as a question and answer session.
“We all have the ability to rule our own world and live with confidence. To do this, we need to use our daily lives to be strong as opposed to aggressive, and act with wisdom and compassion. When we begin to mix this ancient wisdom of rulership into our secular life, we have success – both spiritually and worldly”.
Sakyong Mipham Rinpoche bridges two worlds, East and West. Sakyong Mipham Rinpoche is the head of the Shambhala Buddhist lineage, spiritual director of Shambhala (a global network of meditation and retreat centers www.shambhala.org and the lineage holder of Naropa University in Boulder, the first Buddhist University in North America). He is author of Turning the Mind into an Ally and Ruling Your World. Born in India , raised in North America and educated in the traditional manner of a Rinpoche, he is the son of bestselling author and Buddhist pioneer Chögyam Trungpa Rinpoche. -
The speaker is also author of the books:
"Turning The Mind Into An Ally" & "Ruling Your World"
See http://mipham.org/books.html for more info.
He grew up in American and speaks excellent English. He teaches traditional Buddhist practices in modern language and modern mindset. Very suitable for modern people.

Last chance to listen to the teaching on Meditation.
10 March, Saturday, 10am-5pm
Meditation Workshop
Sakyong Mipham Rinpoche said that he would be teaching meditation, but especially focused on what we could bring into our daily lives too, not just during meditation.
He believes that at this time when we're all so busy, we need to learn methods that can be practiced for short while (even for 5-10 minutes), but are of quality.
Still open for people who are interested to come and learn.
Venue : Novotel Clarke Quay, Cinnamon Room -
