The Power of Loving Kindness

When universal love leading to liberation of the heart is ardently developed, unrelentingly resorted to, it brings great joy to our life. We inherit a super vehicle from the Buddha, the sublime abiding of mettā, loving kindness. This is our shelter from unwholesome states – the antidote and true salve for harmful habits of mind. More and more, the practice of forgiveness and compassion vanquish hateful feelings and uproot the poisons of the mind. We awaken to the wondrous blessings of loving kindness, and we plant seeds of our spiritual healing, peace and incomparable happiness. Insight Meditation Society Retreat, MA., USA, 2016
