Excerpted from a talk given at the New York Shambhala Center in April 2007
By James Gimian
Listen to the talk
In this one-hour talk, James Gimian shares insights and stories about how Chögyam Trungpa taught and what he taught: his trust in his students, his focus on nontheism, his from-the-inside-out approach, his emphasis on spiritual materialism, and
how his teachings are woven together as a whole cloth.
James Gimian, one of the principal leaders of the Dorje Kasung from 1977 to 1997, is currently the publisher of the Shambhala Sun and Buddhadharma magazines, and the owner of Trident Publications, which has released a number of titles by Chögyam Trungpa. Jim is also a member of the Denma Translation Committee (see: the Art of War by Sun Tzu), and the coauthor of Rules of Victory.
