Listen Later

Text me your feedback.

Tonglen - the practice of sending and receiving - helps us to be with hardship without falling into despair.  An explanation of the practice appears in the Lojong teachings and is associated with those who follow the path of the Bodhisattvas. 

In addition to cultivating an open, spacious heart, Tonglen can help us to cultivate the paramitas - the perfections - especially generosity, loving-kindness, determination, and diligence. 

The practice starts at 3:14 after a brief introduction. If your player supports chapter markers, you can skip ahead.
