Loving-Kindness, also known as metta, is a meditation practice taught by the Buddha to heal troubled states of mind and to cultivate selfless or altruistic love into one’s baseline attitude. Of all Buddhist meditations, Loving-Kindness has the immediate benefit of uplifting the mind and relieving habituated negative patterns.
Each session of this series includes a guided loving-kindness meditation, a short discussion of one of the elements of loving-kindness, and an opportunity to ask questions. In the summer session, the facilitator introduces new sources and topics not previously discussed in the series.
