Alan covers the prerequisites for the development of equanimity, which involve one transcending one’s ordinary deluded outlook.  He discusses how one may become able to do this: how one may cultivate a sense of contentment, how one may more strongly identify a common ground between self and other and how to then develop an evenness of caring that is founded upon reality based hope and warmth.
