Shambhala community activities
Many members engage in contemplative arts, either as their professon or in their centers. Others are trying to develop new approaches to health care, childcare, care for the elderly and palliative care for the dying. Still others are bringing their meditative experience and insights into the fields of business, finances and education. Some of these activities are nascent, others are quite fully fledged.
