About meThe Acadiana Shambhala Meditation Group meets every Monday night at 500 E. Farrel Rd. in Lafayette, Louisiana.

Sitting and walking meditation begins at 6:30 pm, and those who are interested in the book discussion stay from 7:30 to 8:30.

We are part of the larger mandala of Shambhala International, an international network of meditation groups, centers, and retreat centers founded in the 1970s by Tibetan monk Chogyam Trungpa Rinpoche and now headed by his son, Sakyong Mipham Rinpoche.

Within Shambhala there are two tracks: Shambhala Training, a secular meditation path, and the Shambhala School of Buddhist Studies. Please go to www.shambhala.org for more information. Highly recommended reading: "Shambhala: The Sacred Path of the Warrior" by Chogyam Trungpa (Shambhala Publication, Boston & London, 1988).

We welcome anyone of any faith or belief system who is interested in working with their own mind through meditation.

Newcomers or those in need of a refresher can get a short meditation instruction and introduction to Shambhala by calling Sharon or Michael Doucet at 981-5188, or coming to the meeting a little early to speak to them.
