SUMMARY:Teaching & Practice with Venerable Losang Gendun
DESCRIPTION:Join Ven. Gendun following the Sunday morning service to dive deeper! \nTopic: “Hermits In and For the World” What does it mean to be fully awake to the suffering of the world — and to stay in it anyway\, out of love? Venerable Gendun will reflect on the role of a “bodhisattva”: not a distant saint\, but anyone who trains in generosity\, integrity\, patience\, energy\, focus\, and wisdom\, then brings that training into ordinary life. His sermon will explore how quiet contemplation leads to engagement with the world and love for all beings. \nAbout Ven. Gendun: Venerable Losang Gendun’s path into Buddhist practice began in the late 1970s through encounters with contemplatives in whom a life of inner perfection and service had become wholly embodied — a Trappist monk\, and later a Theravāda abbot\, who between them set the course of a life dedicated to meditation. Before taking robes\, he worked across palliative care\, technology\, refugee organizations\, and management — a range of human experience that continues to shape his teaching. \nTaking robes as a Bhikṣu in the Tibetan tradition in 2006\, Ven. Gendun spent nine years in philosophical study at Nalanda Monastery in France\, with further training in India\, Nepal\, and Myanmar\, complemented by more than four years in solitary retreat working deeply with Tibetan sūtra and tantra alongside the Burmese Theravāda Forest Tradition. \nFor the past eighteen years he has taught Buddhist philosophy\, psychology\, and meditation internationally. The Buddha Project\, founded in 2023\, is in part a gesture of gratitude toward the legacy of his principal teachers\, Geshe Tengye and Lama Zopa Rinpoche — offering sustained guidance for serious meditators\, fostering dialogue between traditions\, and supporting scientific research into contemplative practice.
