In this practical guide to enlightened living, Chögyam Trungpa provides an inspiring vision for our times; at the center of this vision is the figure of a sacred warrior. In ancient times, a warrior learned to withstand the trials of life - not only on the battlefield, but also off it. He acquired a sense of personal freedom and power not through violence or aggression, but through gentleness, courage and self-knowledge. Japanese samurai, warrior kings of Tibet, knights of medieval Europe, and Indian warriors are just a few examples of this universal tradition of wisdom. This book shows the path of the warrior to men and women of our time who strive for self-improvement and full realization. Describing the warrior's path in modern terms, Trungpa discusses techniques such as synchronizing the mind and body, breaking habits, relaxation through discipline, openness and fearlessness in dealing with the world, and discovering the sacred dimension in everyday life. And most importantly: by discovering the deep goodness of human life, the warrior learns to radiate this goodness to the world around him, contributing to the peace and health of its inhabitants. The teachings of Shambhala - after the name of the legendary Himalayan kingdom of happiness and justice - open the possibility of an enlightened life to every human being. “The profound wisdom of Shambhala,” Trungpa writes, “says that in this world as it is, we can find a good, meaningful human life dedicated to the service of others. This is our true wealth." Chogyam Trungpa is a meditation master, teacher and artist, founder of the Naropa Institute, author of books on Buddhism and meditation.
