Welcome

The Shambhala Meditation Center of Portland is part of an international community of over 180 urban meditation and rural retreat centers founded by Chögyam Trungpa Rinpoche, now led by Sakyong Mipham Rinpoche. Our center offers public meditation, a core curriculum of Buddhist and Shambhala teachings, as well as training in advanced contemplative practices. We invite you to explore our diverse programs designed to help people of all traditions discover their inherent sanity, gentleness and humor.

Getting Started

At the Shambhala Center of Portland, we practice and teach mindfulness-awareness meditation, as it has been passed from teacher to student for 2500 years.

We offer meditation instruction free of charge at the beginning of our regular Tuesday evening practice from 7 p.m. to 9 p.m. and at the beginning of our Sunday morning meditation from 9am to 12pm on the first and third Sundays of each month.
