Shambhala Training is a secular approach to meditation developed by the late Tibetan Buddhist teacher Chogyam Trungpa and his students. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] It is based on what Trungpa calls Shambhala Vision, which sees enlightened society as not purely mythical, but as realizable by people of all faiths through practices of mindfulness/awareness, non-aggression, and sacred outlook. [ 3 ] He writes: The Shambhala Training teachings cover art, society, and politics and the goal of creating an enlightened society . That goal is presented as not solely a social and political process, but one requiring individuals to develop an awareness of the basic goodness and inherent dignity of themselves, of others, and of the everyday details of the world around them.
The "three days of the Moon" is a concept drawn from ancient Sumerian lore, where there were three Moon Goddesses during the time of the Full Moon, and the three Gods of the Moon during the time of the Dark Moon.

Ayurveda is the medical system related to Yoga that gives each one of us a roadmap to our body. It means “the knowledge of life” and it teaches us how to understand our body and mind, what tendencies we have for imbalance and ill-health, and how to take care of our body through each season and various stages of life. This “yogic medicine” seeks to bring balance into our daily routines, our dietary habits, our exercise regimens and our way of being in the world. Ayurveda understands that we all have goals we wish to pursue, and that we need a healthy body and a stable mind to be able to pursue those goals. It teaches us how to do that.
