Do We Need to be Attached to be Kind?

Wow! Can you imagine a world full of compassion were everyone is kind? Be amazing wouldn't it!? Best wishes

Mindblowing, right? 😄

Very important topic. Do you have particular metta practice that you’ve found potent? I have found Ayya Khema's writings and recordings helpful. Her short guided audio recordings are very good. I’d be interested to hear what teachers people are working with. I know about Sharon Salsberg of course.

[@DougsDharma]

Yes, Sharon is a great contemporary teacher of metta. I’ve done a few videos talking about metta practice generally, they may be helpful. One on metta practice generally: th-cam.com/video/7mFBdFyyqe0/w-d-xo.html and one on compassion practice that also deals with metta and its development: th-cam.com/video/0K0zyE4RseU/w-d-xo.html

I would like to ask you a personal question about practice. It's not a question about you, but it's about practice and it's related to me. Is there a way that I could reach out to you through email? I know you have a patreon page. I don't have one and I don't really know what it is so I prefer email.

If you don't want to write your email publicly, I'll give you mine and you could email me. [e-mail]
