Windhorse builds on the teachings of basic goodness, “cocoon,” fearlessness, inquisitiveness, and openness in Shambhala Training Levels I-V and the teachings of the Great Eastern Sun – a societal vision and aspiration to help the world manifest a good human society in difficult times.Participants explore The Letter of the Black Ashe, by Chögyam Trungpa Rinpoche that gives the instruction for a practice called “raising windhorse.” Windhorse or “lungta” in Tibetan, could be likened to “chi / qi,” or “life force energy.” Participants learn the practice of “raising windhorse” as an immediate way to open the heart, refresh confidence, and connect with the present moment. This practice is a powerful way to bring about skillful and heartfelt social engagement, enabling the warrior to go forward in the midst of the tremendous challenges we are facing in our world.
