Shambhala Training: Level III: Warrior in the World

An In-Person Weekend Retreat at the Seattle Shambhala Center

Shambhala Training: Level III, we work in a deliberate way, making an effort to bring the mindfulness and awareness cultivated in our meditation practice into all aspects of daily life. When we become awake to our sense perceptions, we can venture into the world with confidence and vulnerability that is fearless, gentle, and alive.

The warrior begins to expand awareness to explore the world with direct perception. This can be the beginning of a lifelong love affair with the phenomenal world, one not based on the reference points of hope and fear or gain and loss. Along this journey we develop genuine confidence, humor, and personal dignity.

For those that have completed L3, participants are now eligible to staff other Levels of 1-3, and the  “Heart of Warriorship” community.
