The

classic guide to enlightened living that first presented the Buddhist

path of the warrior to Western readers-with a new foreword and cover

presentation.

There is a basic human wisdom that can help solve the world's problems. It doesn't belong to any one culture or region or religious tradition-though it can be found in many of them throughout history. It's what Ch gyam Trungpa called the sacred path of the warrior. The sacred warrior conquers the world not through violence or aggression but through gentleness, courage, and self-knowledge. The warrior discovers the basic goodness of human life and radiates that goodness out into the world for the peace and sanity of others. That's what the Shambhala teachings are all about, and this is the book that has been presenting them to a wide and appreciative audience for more than thirty years.

Reviews for Shambhala: The Sacred Path of the Warrior

"""Trungpa's clear-headed vision shows us that celebrating life is based on appreciating ourselves. This book is a masterpiece of clarity and insight.""—East West Journal ""Shambhala provides a clear depiction of the results and, thus, the reasons for meditation practice as a source of strength for daily living and spiritual growth.""—Body, Mind & Spirit ""Trungpa's warrior is a most appealing figure, embodying qualities that every spiritual tradition would hold dear. The principal discipline recommended here—being genuine moment after moment—allows one to discover the magic inherent in phenomena, where the synchronization of body and mind becomes an attunement to the natural order.""—Yoga Journal"
