Bangkok Shambhala Meditation Center

Welcome to the Bangkok Shambhala Meditation Center The Bangkok Shambhala Meditation Center is part of a global community which aspires to awaken kindness, goodness and wisdom within society. This vision is rooted in the principle that every human being has a fundamental nature of basic goodness. Addressing harm in the Shambhala community. The meditation technique that we practice and teach is Shamatha Viphashana a mindfulness-awareness meditation. This technique originates directly from the Buddha Shakyamuni and has been passed from teacher to student for over 2500 years. We host a variety of meditation classes each week at the Shambhala center here in Bangkok, to accomodate the schedules of our diverse group of members. Each class is led by a meditation instructor (certified and trained in the Shambhala Buddhist lineage), so you can ask any questions you have about your practice, or just come along and benefit by sitting with a group! Shambhala Vision Creating enlightened society “An enlightened society would be based upon the most deep, simple, and natural principle,” says Sakyong Mipham Rinpoche, the living lineage holder of the Shambhala teachings and author of The Shambhala Principle. “That society would have an unequivocal and deep sense of confidence. This confidence would not be based upon competitiveness or arrogance, nor would it be tinged with paranoia. The society would be awake, and enriched by the most inexhaustible principle.”
