Shambhala Gainesville Meditation Center celebrated the Harvest of Peace! Sunday, September 22, 2025! Join us for future events! https://gainesville.shambhala.org/

Harvest of Peace is one of Shambhala’s Nyida holidays, marking the changing of the seasons. It is a time to gather together for meditation, good food, and good conversation. A time to contemplate what nourishes, strengthens, and sustains us, individually, and as a community.

Appreciation is at the heart of this Harvest of Peace celebration. We have so much to be thankful for β€” the teachings of our lineage, our beautiful space, the talents and generosity of our community, our sangha, and time spent together.
