On Friday, January 17 at 6 PM, the Shambhala Meditation Center of St. Johnsbury will be showing a documentary film, "Words of My Perfect Teacher, Dzongsar Khyentse Rinpoche and 3 Hapless Students." This is an engaging, provocative and funny, but serious film about the modern and traditional student-teacher relationship in Vajrayana buddhism. Dzongsar Rinpoche is one of the most outspoken Tibetan teachers and a filmmaker in his own right. 

The showing is free and open to the public. Refreshments and discussion will follow. The Shambhala Center is located at 17 Eastern Ave., St. Johnsbury. For more information, please call (603) 638-4115; https://st-johnsbury.shambhala.org
