Shambhala News ServiceThe Wisdom Of Pema Chödrön Summit
You’re Invited! Join us for a free summit inspired by the teachings of Pema Chödrön.
Pema Chödrön has been a guiding light for millions of people around the world. She has shown us how to appreciate life, embrace uncertainty, and find courage and compassion when things fall apart. Her wisdom is supportive, grounding, and truly transformational.
We all know how it feels to be overwhelmed by uncertainty and change. It is our deeply ingrained habit to seek solid ground, and we often find ourselves grasping for it. Pema’s teachings illuminate how we often go looking for peace in all the wrong places, and that the key to working with life’s difficulties is in learning how to let go and to trust our innate goodness.
We are delighted to invite you to a one-of-a-kind opportunity to hear from 11 Buddhist teachers and heart friends inspired by Pema Chödrön to celebrate her example and explore powerful teachings to transform difficulty and live fearlessly with an open and compassionate heart.
The Wisdom of Pema Chödrön: A Summit of Timeless Teachings to Awaken The Heart is a FREE online event taking place from April 7-11.

This free online summit is for you if you’ve found yourself asking:
- How can I shake feelings of restlessness and learn to be ok with uncertainty?
- How can I embrace life’s ups and downs and use challenges to awaken my heart?
- How can I learn to practice loving-kindness when I feel hurt or betrayed?
- How can I move more gracefully through undeniable change?
- How can I bring more joy into my life, and into the lives of others?
As Pema says, “From great suffering can come hatred, resentment and despair… or from great suffering can come great openness of heart and a great sense of kinship with others.” We hope you’ll join us for this opportunity to cultivate openness, kinship, joy, and resilience, inspired by one of the greatest Buddhist teachers of our time, Pema Chödrön.
