The Food of Kindness

How can we blaze a trail through the wilderness of ill-will, greed, and delusion in this world? How can we be fearless and at peace even when facing grievous loss, harm, illness, or death? Spiritual friendship and these treasured teachings guide us to trust, persevere, and live wisely. We walk the razor’s edge – feeling at times as if the heart is bleeding. But we observe and search deeply, seeing the true causes and conditions of this suffering. Our joy and fulfillment is exceeded only by the joy of reflecting kindness and compassion towards all beings in the ten directions. A talk at Sati Saraniya Hermitage, Nov. 2, 2025
