Sacred Drums and Feathers in a Sacred Landscape

Shambhala Mountain Center often hosts Cankatola Ti Ospaye (chan-kha-toh-la tee oshe-pah-yeah), a gathering of  members of the Shambhala community who have established an ongoing relationship with the Lakota tribe. The group’s president is Jim Tolstrup, a Shambhala member who has been involved with the Native American community since he was a teenager. There have been hundreds of sweat lodge ceremonies at Shambhala Mountain Center over the last 10 years (more than 1,000 people have participated).
