Stupa Serenade

Creative Expression, Life at SMC

Painter of Thangkas, Playing Guitar.

Greg Smith studied with Choyam Trungpa Rinpoche and is now a student of his son Sakyong Mipham Rinpoche. Of the past 33 years, Greg has spent 23 at Shambhala Mountain Center, contributing to the community and practice environment, and befriending many of the program participants. He oversaw the painting of the Great Stupa of Dharmakaya during its construction and continues to relate to it on a daily basis. After all, he can see it from his bedside window.

We asked Greg for an offering that we could share with our community to celebrate the richness of our sangha. He was more than happy to oblige and decided to play a song, in every floor of the Stupa!

So here is Greg Smith, practitioner, painter, guitarist, and friend.

We can’t do it without you!

Shambhala Mountain Center is powered by offerings of all kinds; volunteered time, donations, teachings and practice. We ask you to join us now by making an offering that will help bring Shambhala Mountain Center into 2013 on healthy financial footing. Please donate to Shambhala Mountain Center today!

There is tremendous momentum and energy to bring the vision of basic human and societal goodness further into the world through Shambhala Mountain Center’s programs and offerings in the next year, but we cannot do it without you!
