The fifth stage of metta

Tonight Robert will explore the fifth stage of the metta practice; metta for every sentient being. In this stage, the emphasis is on being able to extend the love and goodwill we have to those closest to us, to every living being equally. How is this possible? Robert will explore ways in which we can extend greater care and friendliness to beings we may never see or meet and why it is important to do so.

In this series we will:

  • discuss what metta is
  • explore different ways to open our hearts to cultivate positive emotion
  • look at the role of body awareness, imagination and loving-kindness as way of being
  • explore our own experience with developing friendliness in our lives and the effect this has had on our well-being and those who come into contact with us

Wednesday nights are a place for people who have attended our foundation courses to come together and celebrate community as well as an opportunity to deepen their knowledge of the Buddha's teaching.
