Shambhala Training is the secular program of meditation and warriorship that eventually was, and continues to be, offered in cities across North and South America, and in Europe. As Trungpa Rinpoche describes, the foundation of these teachings are the principles of basic goodness; The Great Eastern Sun -- connected with the perpetual arising of fresh experience; and the development of confidence, gentleness, and fearlessness in one's everyday life. Trungpa Rinpoche gave five single public talks on Shambhala Training in multiple cities between the years 1978 and 1982. We will eventually release all five of the talks in this series; our first release is the very first public talk ever given for Shambhala Training, titled "Basic Goodness."
