Level II Cape Town 19 - 21 February, 2010
19/02/2010 Basic goodness sparks bravery, which supports us in uncovering the habitual, painful strategies we use to avoid fear and sadness. In Level II, we explore these patterns of avoidance and how we can use our mindfulness practice to work with them.
Welcome to Shambhala Cape Town
Shambhala Cape Town is a registered non-profit group dedicated to building a community that can help our world by cultivating our own sanity. We offer both Buddhist teachings and the secular meditation training path known as Shambhala Training. Shambhala Cape Town is affiliated with Shambhala International, a global network of study and practice centres.
It is the Shambhala view that every human being has a fundamental nature of goodness, warmth and intelligence. This nature can be cultivated through meditation, following ancient principles common to many wisdom traditions the world over. Our innately brilliant nature can be further developed in daily life, so that it radiates out to family, friends, community and society.
