This course will delve into the richness of the wisdom lineages of Shambhala Buddhism, introducing central figures in our tradition, and how their lives and teachings serve as up-to-date examples for practitioners.
The course will explore how teachers play a central role in transmitting the paths of study and practice to their students. It will consider the student/teacher relationship from various aspects: trust in the teacher and teachings, faith in our own innate wisdom, and the resulting devotion that sees the world as teacher.
