Zen at the Sharp End

Guided Loving Kindness Meditation

Mark Westmoquette Season 2 Episode 4

Generating the intention or wish that all beings feel well and happy. 

The meditation starts by encouraging you to wish loving kindness to yourself. Then it asks you to intensify and expand that feeling to the point where it feels like it's overflowing. Then we bring a friend/loved one, a neutral person and finally a difficult person to mind and send them our loving kindness. The practice finishes by encouraging this loving kindness to grow like an expanding bubble to embrace the whole, infinite universe.

This meditation was recorded to go along with Ep2-4 with Frank Cooke. It's an excellent practice to do to help us deal with our difficult people.
