Shambhala Center Membership

Lotus

If you are inspired by the Shambhala community and path, please consider becoming a member. Membership at the San Francisco Shambhala center is both an expression of your commitment to the path of meditation, as well as a commitment to help sustain the center and community.

Membership has three key components:

1. Meditation Practice

Becoming a member is a further commitment to one’s personal path of meditation and study, as well as community practice and training.

2. Volunteering

Members take on responsibility for the wellbeing of the center and community through regular volunteering as staff for the sitting container, training programs and general administration. More information on how to volunteer can be found here.

3. Providing Financial Support

As a non-profit organization, the SF Shambhala Center relies entirely on membership dues, training program income and general donations for its financial sustainability. Membership dues provide over 50% of our income, and each member’s contribution is an investment in further sustainability and growth for the center.

Benefits of Membership:

A personal relationship with a meditation instructor.

Substantial discounts on programs from 25% to 100% depending on one’s level of patronage.

15% bookstore discount
