I know its not Japanese, so maybe not directly relevant to the website. However it is relevant to meditation.
I've been meditating on my own for a while. It got to the point where I thought I'd like to look around see what was available locally to expand my practice.
Theres a local meditation group starting this week - Shambhala (Sacred Path of the Warrior). The group is lead by someone Buddhist based but states what he teaches will be applicable whether you're religious or not.
Just wondered if anyone had experience of Shambhala and could help me on whether to go down this path?
