In this short video, meditation teacher Sylvia Boorstein — a featured contributor to the “Wake Up in Every Moment” section of the July 2015 Shambhala Sun magazine — extends a personal invitation to practice with her, along with Tsoknyi Rinpoche, Melissa Blacker, and staff and readers of the Shambhala Sun and Buddhadharma at our coming retreat at Omega Institute in Rhinebeck, New York. The retreat, called “Waking Up in Every Moment,” will take place from August 26-30. (Registrants can sign up for the whole time, or just a weekend portion.)

Can you help us at a critical time?
COVID-19 has brought tremendous suffering, uncertainty, fear, and strain to the world.
Our sincere wish is that these Buddhist teachings, guided practices, and stories can be a balm in these difficult times. Over the past month, over 400,000 readers like you have visited our site, reading almost a million pages and streaming over 120,000 hours of video teachings. We want to provide even more Buddhist wisdom but our resources are strained. Can you help us?
No one is free from the pandemic’s impact, including Lion’s Roar. We rely significantly on advertising and newsstand sales to support our work — both of which have dropped precipitously this year. Can you lend your support to Lion’s Roar at this critical time?
