Welcome to Northern Rivers Shambhala!

The Northern Rivers Shambhala Meditation Group offers ongoing training in mindfulness-awareness meditation and the Shambhala principle of basic goodness — that we are all, at the core, worthy and complete.  Meditation helps us wake up to our lives and infuse our everyday activities with wisdom, compassion and a sense of humour.

Established in 2010, we are part of Shambhala International, a global community of meditation centres founded in 1973 by Tibetan Buddhist monk Chögyam Trungpa Rinpoche.

Ongoing Offerings:

PLEASE NOTE: Open House has moved! As of Saturday 25 of August 2018 we are meeting on Saturday mornings from 10.00am -12.00pm at the Inner Light Centre, upstairs at 131 Keen Street, Lismore NSW. 

  • Open House is a wonderful introduction to meditation and the Shambhala Path. All are welcome!  Join us for sitting and walking meditation from 10.00am to 11.00am, followed by morning tea, a reading from books by Chögyam Trungpa Rinpoche, Sakyong Mipham Rinpoche, or Pema Chödrön, and group discussion until 12.00pm. Free meditation instruction is available.  We provide live online access if you are unable to participate in person.
