Love as warm, openhearted tenderness: what it means, how it is cultivated in Tibetan Buddhist practice, and why it is beneficial. Lama Zopa guides an experiential practice beginning with shamatha (English: tranquility, or calm abiding) and leading into meditative inquiry, an insight practice from the Tibetan that invokes, instills, and integrates prajna, precise knowing.
