Heart Cultivation Meditation

"This is what should be done by one who is skilled in goodness and who knows the path of peace ....." The Metta Sutta

This meet-up will help you to learn meditation skills to deepen your experience of love, compassion, joy and peace. In a supportive environment, learn to develop these qualities of mind and heart that are referred to as the Divine (or Sublime) abiding’s (or modes of conduct). They are also known as the Brahmaviharas (Brahma +viharas). They are described as the "four illimitables" (appamannya) in that they have no bounds. Through a variety of concentration meditation practices and skillful intention we can cultivate our inherent capacity for calming, stilling, and healing our state of mind and body. As we cultivate these limitless qualities of loving goodwill, compassion, joy, and equanimity, we can harvest true happiness, spiritual strength, and insight. These practices are considered complementary to insight meditation.
