Shambhala Sacred Path: Golden Key with Valerie Lorig

In this culmination of the Shambhala Sacred Path program, we will learn to access the richness inherent in our experience of the world.

Drawing wisdom from The Letter of the Golden Key, a Shambhala root text that addresses our relationship to the material world and our sense perceptions, we will learn the practice of enriching presence—the ability to instantly sense the inner wealth within ourselves, phenomena and the natural world.

Prerequisite: Outrageous & Inscrutable
