Bangkok Shambhala Meditation Center

Bangkok Shambhala Meditation Center Our center offers weekly public meditation, a core curriculum of Buddhist and Shambhala teachings, as well as training in advanced contemplative practices.

Shambhala vision is rooted in the contemplative teachings of Buddhism, yet is a fresh expression of the spiritual journey for our time; it is available to practitioners of any tradition.

Join us for a meditation, reading and discussion class every Wednesday evening from 6:30pm - 8pm. Join by Google Meet or attend the class in person at the Shambhala Center.

This weekly event includes group meditation, followed by reading of a chapter from the current book, followed by group discussion on the material,  plus refreshments and social time at the end.

This is a wonderful opportunity to meditate in a supportive group setting, learn about the principles of meditation, and to meet and mingle with fellow practitioners (bring your friends)! We welcome both newcomers and familiar faces. No previous experience needed. Come to one class, or come every week.

This is a drop-in session. No previous attendance, registration, or fee is required to attend. Suggested Donation 100 Baht (minimum). The Bangkok Shambhala Center (which is a Thai non-profit Association) remains open because of the ongoing generosity of our members and program participants.

"To think that you will be happy by becoming something else is delusion. Becoming something else just exchanges one form of suffering for another form of suffering.

But when you are content with who you are now, junior or senior, married or single, rich or poor, then you are free of suffering."

-Ajahn Brahm

So grateful to have the chance to practice and study with Dza Kilung Rinpoche again after many years of not seeing him here in Bangkok. Kilung Rinpoche consecrated and blessed the space where the Shambhala center is now before we moved in, five year's ago or so. Thank you to his students and the Thai sangha here for organizing this event and inviting him to teach 🙏🙏🙏

Join us for a special class, Friday 14th, from 6pm - 8pm, with visiting teacher, Joseph Wagner.

In this evening class, we'll learn about the Tibetan tradition and methods of applying mindfulness and awareness to the sleeping and dreaming states, as a way of further integrating our meditation practice into every aspect of our life.

Joseph Wagner has been a Buddhist practitioner since 1988, and is the resident teacher at Denver Dzogchan. A student of many great masters, he is particularly fortunate to have received the Dzogchen transmissions in great detail from Tulku Urgyen Rinpoche, and to have had numerous opportunities to clarify their meaning in Tibet, Nepal and India, as well as in the West with some of the main lineage holders of our time.

Joseph has received the authorization and "command" (Tibetan: Ka) to teach the Dharma from several of his Lamas, and, as the resident teacher at Denver Dzogchen, he also regularly teaches throughout the USA, and around the world.

This is a drop-in class; no regsitration required. Suggested Donation 500 Baht (or more).

Everyone who contributes time &/or energy to help make these classes happen is an unpaid volunteer. Thanks for your participation and support!
