Beautiful
Guided meditation: (20:12)
Hi Wilson - you're doing important work as evidenced by this video; your videos and book should be incorporated into a school curriculum, among other settings. The purpose and methods you set forth are not limited to Buddhist ideology but are universal - dare I say, Catholic - precepts. This is important for people to know: you're not trying to indoctrinate anyone and everybody can apply these beneficial techniques to their life. I, myself, am a teacher for the visually impaired and plan on sharing this with my colleagues. Well done sir!
Thanks David. That’s what I was hoping for: to develop a secularized approach for helping folks of any belief system reduce selfishness and increase compassionate insight. I appreciate your encouragement! 🙏🌺
