2025-01-13 Guided Meditation: Radiating Metta (Retreat at Spirit Rock) 37:19
Donald Rothberg	Download Listen
We start with naming two general contexts for metta practice: (1) metta is practiced along with the other three brahmavihara—compassion, sympathetic joy, and equanimity—and when mature integrates the other three; and (2) there are different ways of practicing metta. We then look at another main way of practicing, likely the way that the Buddha practiced—radiating metta. After a brief overview, we practice radiating metta first through a guided spatial expansion of radiating metta, from one’s own heart to the infinite expanse. Then we practice briefly a simple way of just letting metta radiate. After practice, there is discussion.

Leslie Booker	Download Listen
The goal of offering metta for a difficult person, is not to change their behavior, but to make sure our hearts don't get colonized by the 3 poisons of greed, hatred and delusion. And for many of us, it's not Metta that is the gateway, but equanimity and compassion. After a 15 minute silent meditation, Booker sings Loosen by Ally Halpert as a lullaby.

Metta als grundlegende Haltung mit der wir Menschen und Erfahrungen begegnen wirkt erfüllend und heilsam. Zahlreiche Personen aus allen spirituellen Traditionen weisen darauf hin. Durch die Mettameditationspraxis lässt sich eine solche Haltung von grundlegendem Wohlwollen in uns verankern, die wir unabhängig von Launen, Reaktionen, Emotionen in uns bewahren können. So wird diese Haltung zu einer Kraft, mit der wir auch bei verletzenden Erfahrungen die Orientierung bewahren können.
