Shambhala has adopted a Code of Conduct. Part I looked at the dharmic teachings that support this to be a societal view. Part II focussed on bringing these principles into our daily interactions. Part III will explore how we can turn our attention to being friendly to ourselves and kinder to others and actually be of help. In this way we have the potential to reverse the way we see things and to connect with the great mahayana teachings of: “rejoice in the virtues of others” and “be grateful to everyone”. Specific lines of the Shambhala Code of Conduct will be unpacked, including: “Learn from each other. Support each other with curiosity and friendliness. Work together to mutually maintain a healthy and open community and cultivate good human society.”; “Give kind and honest feedback. Be open to receiving feedback from others.”; “Be true to your inspiration. Bring your unique perspective and talents to the community and appreciate others’. Enjoy yourself. Don't be afraid to take a risk.”; “Honour your vows and your commitments to practice and study with fellow practitioners. Continue an active ongoing relationship with a meditation instructor or someone who helps you reflect on your path.”; and “Honour the process of learning about life, respecting teachers of all wisdom traditions and all who seek wisdom.” Join Kristine for a Sunday Gathering that includes guided meditation practice, some contemplation, and discussion.
