The Shambhala Sun Surveys
The Teachings of Chögyam Trungpa


  Read the article
 
In the January 2012 Shambhala Sun, senior editor Barry Boyce takes on the impossible task of surveying Trungpa Rinpoche's fathomless ocean of teachings, with impressive results. In just 5,000 words, Boyce looks insightfully into CTR's seminal teachings, including cutting through spiritual materialism, living in the Charnel ground, sitting practice of meditation, bodhicitta, dharma art, kasungship (here he coins the term "meditation-in-interaction" to describe the practice of kasungship), and the path of Shambhala warriorship.

Weaved throughout the article is the underlying message that Trungpa Rinpoche's influence is ongoing -- that (as Boyces puts it so well) "he lived to leave a legacy, so that far into the future people could experience the dharma he taught not as an artifact of a past time and place, but always as 'fresh-baked bread.'"

Over the next year the Shambhala Sun will present a selection of Chögyam Trungpa's teachings to commemorate the twenty-fifth anniversary of his death. We're all looking forward to what they have in store.
