Rob Burbea
This series of talks and guided meditations explores the development of the practices of both Lovingkindness and Compassion, with particular emphasis on the radical possibilities of Awakening that they bring. Through these practices we come to develop deep and beautiful qualities of heart as a real resource both for ourselves and the world, and also open ourselves to the profound and liberating understandings that can emerge from this path of love.

2006-12-05 Compassion 61:35
Jack Kornfield
This talk was given on the theme of compassion in honor of Veterans' Day. Compassion is the natural relationship of the heart to sorrow -- the movement of the heart in sympathy with other beings and with one's self. Relating to life with compassion allows us to move through this world of birth and death, of joy and sorrow with wisdom and grace.
