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.
