Shambhala Sadhana Practice

February 22nd (2016)

Date details +

    This practice is open to all members of the Ottawa Shambhala Centre.  

    The Full Moon monthly Shambhala Sadhana practice is a time to gather as a community throughout Shambhala. These practices are open to every member of the Shambhala Centre, even those of us who have not attended Enlightened Society Assembly and who do not hold this practice in daily life. (Normally the Shambhala Sadhana is restricted to people who have completed prerequisites)

    We will be joining the global community in this monthly practice. These will be opportunities for us to meet, practice together, and have conversation around themes of basic goodness and wholesome society. The intention is to foster experiences of basic goodness personally and societally, and to further bind us as a wholesome community.

    Most of these monthly Shambhala Sadhana gatherings will consist of practice, discussion, and informal receptions without feast practice. They will be held as near as possible to each full moon; each will be hosted by a senior teacher in the community and facilitated by a Shambhala Council member with a team of people excited to share food and discussion with the community.

    Programs without a price are free. For those programs with a price listed, please do not let price be an obstacle. Visit our generosity policy page.

    When available as an option, your generosity in offering the patron price helps cover the costs for others who are not able to pay the full price. Any amount offered above the Program Price is considered a charitable donation to the centre, and will be included in a tax receipt issued by email in February of the following year.

    For programs that have a register button, it is helpful for us if you can indicate your intention to attend by registering ahead of time. In order to prevent duplicate entries in the Shambhala Database, all registrations are reviewed before you will receive a confirmation email.

    Our Refund Policy:  For convenience you can pay online using a credit card via PayPal. If we cancel the program for any reason, we will give you a full refund. We understand that sometimes after you have pre-paid, you might be unable to attend.  We will be happy to refund your payment if you request it at least 24 hours before the program starts.  Due to the difference in PayPal charges for purchases and refunds, we charge a nominal amount of $5 for a refund.
