The Shambhala Meditation Center of Atlanta is part of an international community of more than 170 meditation centers founded by Chogyam Trungpa Rinpoche and now led by Sakyong Mipham Rinpoche. The Shambhala Buddhist path, unique in the world of western Buddhism, combines the teachings of the Kagyu and Nyingma traditions of Tibetan Buddhism with the Shambhala principles of living an uplifted life, fully engaged with the world.

Our Center, located at 1447 Church Street in Decatur, offers meditation instruction and introductory talks on Tuesdays and Sundays, free of charge. We also offer a core curriculum of Shambhala Buddhist teachings, meditation practice sessions, programs for families and children, and training in contemplative practices and traditional arts.

People of all religious and spiritual traditions are welcome. Our members, friends, and visitors discover that meditation practice enriches their chosen spiritual traditions.
