“It is very important to realize how powerful all of us are. What we are doing may seem insignificant, but this notion of dharma art will be like an atomic bomb you carry in your mind. You could play a tremendous role in developing peace throughout the world.”
-Vidyadara, Chögyam Trungpa Rinpoche
Shambhala Art teachers are warmly invited and strongly encouraged to attend this year’s East Coast Shambhala Art Teachers Intensive at Karmê Chöling beginning on the evening of Wednesday, September 22 and ending with lunch on Friday, September 24th. This precedes the Shambhala Art Parts 1-3 which starts September 24 and ends on the 29th.
October 15 / 7:00 PM – 9:00 PM
Chogyam Trungpa Rinpoche worked with individual artists and gave public seminars on the principles of dharma art, art that told the truth, he said. Artists, he 
thought, had the power to awaken the world, to change it, and the responsibility not to pollute it. The same could be said for anyone who trains to to see the world clearly and then respond accurately with wisdom of an open mind and the warmth of an open heart. Thus his teachings on the art of everyday life.
We will explore both of these approaches in an interactive evening, 7-9pm on October 15 at Shambhala Providence.

Time: Saturday August 21st -Sunday August 22nd, 2010
9:00 am – 4:30 pm
This program is for everyone, artists and non-artists alike. Participants will explore the sense perceptions through talks and hands-on exercises, including looking at the mind and how it communicates. The more completely we touch, taste, see, hear and smell our world, the greater the possibility of expressing ourselves completely and without separation or aggression. This Part I will include Mudra Space Awareness exercises to highlight the wholeness of artistic expression and how we can live fully and completely in the world. When we begin to experience the world more directly, in all of its vividness, we bring authentic expression to all that we do.
Shambhala Art is based on Chögyam Trungpa’s teachings on art. Chögyam Trungpa himself was not only a renowned meditation master, but also a poet, filmmaker, painter, ikebana and calligraphy master and author.
Cost: $100, includes lunch
Discounts for seniors and students are available, as well as income sensitivity discounts.
