Building on the Heart of Warriorship and the Sacred Path programmes, Warrior Assembly introduces powerful practices and teachings on the Ashe principle. This Assembly focuses on how to develop fearlessness in engaging as a warrior in the world. Participants receive transmission and training in advanced Shambhala practices along with a text written by Chögyam Trungpa Rinpoche.
