0:26 Meditation | 18:29 Talk: Radical Compassion: Loving Ourselves And Our World Into Healing - Part 3
Drawn from Tara’s book, Radical Compassion (2020), these three talks explore how the RAIN practice (Recognize, Allow, Investigate, Nurture) awakens the active, embodied caring that heals and frees our hearts. Through the framework of this practice, we look at how we can reconnect with the gold of our true nature, navigating life’s challenges with mindfulness and love.
In Part 3, Tara explores:
✨ How the RAIN practice fosters compassion and connection by dismantling barriers to belonging.
✨ The three primary blocks to compassion: self-centered attention, creating a "bad other," and fear of overwhelm.
✨ How "stealth metta" and the mantra "We are friends" can soften our habitual biases and awaken kindness.
✨ The transformative power of seeing the "goodness behind the mask" in ourselves and others.
✨ The practice of Tonglen - breathing in suffering and breathing out care, to transform pain into a source of strength and connection.
