Two Wings of Mettā: A Daylong Retreat on Compassion and Joy with Ajahn Nisabho and Ayyā Ahimsa

Two Wings of Mettā: A Daylong Retreat on Compassion and Joy with Ajahn Nisabho and Ayyā Ahimsa

The Buddha encouraged us to brighten the mind through meditating on the four Divine Abodes (brahmavihāras) of loving-kindness (mettā), compassion (karuṇā), empathetic joy (muditā), and equanimity (upekkhā). By focusing on the two supplementary qualities of compassion—the heart’s response to others’ suffering—and empathetic joy—its response to others’ happiness, we broaden our capacity to meet all circumstances, internal and external, with love.
