Lady Diana’s presence has been such an anchor for so many people in the Shambhala community, including me. As a new student, meeting her at a book signing and reading Dragon Thunder, opened my understanding of how the ancient wisdom traditions and the culture I felt so drawn to made sense. She conveyed the humanity and richness of the story of her life together with Chogyam Trungpa, which made the teachings more real and accessible for me. Hosting her at the Providence Shambhala Center, and being welcomed into her home and getting to know her better are such joyful memories. Lady Diana’s dignity, warmth, precision, and sense of humor inspired me in how to be. May her journey be peaceful and with ease, and may the emotions of letting go flow gently for her and her family.
