The Practice of Taking Refuge

November 5th (2017)

Date details +
    For those who have taken refuge in the Shambhala Lineage, you are invited to a group practice of The Practice of Taking Refuge.  Please bring your copy and also a mala if you wish. If you took refuge with Chogyam Trungpa, or the Vajra Regent, or the Sakyong before this text was available, you can still get the text. We have some copies for sale in English and French.
     
    We will talk through how to do the practice, answer questions about visualization, mantra, etc.  We will do the practice in English. We will discuss the commentary.  If you have a French text, we can arrange to have English copies available.  Please contact David if you plan to attend and don’t have an English text.
     
    Prerequisite:  You must have taken Refuge with a Shambhala Lineage holder.

    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.
