S009E02 Contemplating The Nature Of Illusion — Class 2


Listen Later

A recovery of loving-kindness - metta - from a worn-out word back to its real force: to soften, to unite, to genuinely mix with all beings rather than wall them off. Tracing the term to its roots, the class insists the kindness reach far past the human, and frames it as the antidote to anger and the support beneath the entire path, though never by itself enough to liberate.
