Seeing Clearly: Practical Skills for the Yogi’s Path – with Ven. Losang Gendun

Boulder, CO – Friday, October 9, 7pm – 8:30pm MST, In-person and online

Our senses are unreliable narrators. Rather than revealing reality as it is, they habitually shape and color experience in ways that distort how we relate to ourselves and the world around us. The Sanskrit term bhāvanā—often translated simply as “meditation”—is better understood as the deliberate cultivation of a clear and wholesome way of seeing, grounded in both careful reasoning and direct experience.

The path of practice, however, has its share of genuine difficulties. Sustaining daily practice in ordinary life is harder than it looks. Methods that work for one practitioner may not suit another. Classical sources can seem remote, their instructions dense or inaccessible. And when practice brings us face to face with ourselves, the temptation to turn away rather than engage is real and familiar.

This evening is designed to meet those difficulties honestly. Through teaching, guided practice, and open Q&A, we will explore together the practical skills that support a grounded and sustainable path—whether you are just beginning or have been practicing for years.
