Shambhala Membership Oath
Inspired by the vision of Shambhala,
to create enlightened society,
I hereby affirm my commitment to the path of meditation
as presented by the Kongma Sakyong, Jamgön Mipham Rinpoche and the
Druk Sakyong, Chögyam Trungpa, Rinpoche.
I pledge to practice, uphold, and propagate
the disciplines of sitting meditation
and meditation in action,
continually working with myself and others
with bravery, gentleness,
a sense of humor, and exertion.
Following the path of basic goodness,
basking in the glory of the Great Eastern Sun,
appreciating every moment,
enjoying the precision and elegance of Shambhala culture,
and working for the benefit of others,
I express the binding wisdom of Shambhala.
Committing my support to carry out this vision,
I hereby take this Shambhala oath.
