Metta, or loving kindness, lies at the heart of Buddhism. It is kindness at its purest and strongest, a loving response to all life. In this book, seven experienced meditators share their reflections on the nature of metta, and give instructions and advice on its cultivation in meditation and in daily life. A little gem of a book.

The Metta Bhavana is a traditional Buddhist meditation practice that has the power to transform our emotional life, our communication with others, and our appreciation of the living world around us. For much of the time we experience our emotions as little more than muscular spasms or chemical reactions. If we win some money we feel ecstatic, when we lose it we feel depressed. When someone is kind to us we like them" when they say something hurtful we become their enemy. It doesn't have to be like that. When we take up the practice of Metta Bhavana we take a creative initiative in a crucial aspect of our nature. And the rewards are considerable. Practised regularly, the Metta Bhavana can unearth and disentangle negative patterns, renew our human relationships, and help us embrace life from a basis of inner wealth. Here, a number of experienced meditators share their discoveries concerning the practice - and implications - of Metta Bhavana. Full of instruction, advice, reflection, and insight, these pages will help anyone who is new - and not so new - to this life-changing discipline. Size: 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall. 32 pages.
