Welcome
Spark your heart and mind through the practice of meditation.
Shambhala Vision is rooted in the principle that every human being has a fundamental nature of basic goodness. This nature can be developed in daily life so that it radiates out to family, friends, community and society. Located in the vibrant Cleveland Park neighborhood, the Shambhala Meditation Center of Washington DC is part of a global community of meditation centers which aspire to awaken kindness, goodness and wisdom within society, through a variety of classes, retreats, community events, and free of charge public meditation sessions.
Kado: The Way of Flowers
Join master teacher Barbara Craig for an introduction to the contemplative art of flower arranging. Kado (Chinese for “the way of flowers”), has been practiced for over 2,000 years to cultivate appreciation for nature and one’s own mind. The vibrant and daring beauty of flowers wakes up the environment and invites us to see what is really before us and inside us. Space is limited; register soon! More →
