Welcome to Shambhala Europe

As human beings, we look for ways to live in our world with dignity and decency. Shambhala is a world-wide community of people who practice the Buddhist and Shambhala traditions of enlightened living, as well as other contemplative disciplines.

Meditation, Practice & Study

Shambhala draws on a wide variety of contemplative traditions and offers a comprehensive path of Mindfulness and Awareness meditation practice and study as laid out in the Kagyu and Nyingma lineages of Tibetan Buddhism and the Shambhala teachings.

Shambhala is inspired by the teachings of Buddha, as well as modern teachers Chögyam Trungpa Rinpoche and Sakyong Jamgön Mipham Rinpoche.
