Brahmaviharas

Led by Rijumitra

The metta bhavana is one of four meditation practices known as the brahmaviharas or "sublime abodes". The other three practices enable us to cultivate and recognise compassion, sympathetic joy, and equanimity. These four qualities are the basis of emotional maturity and the foundation of transcendental compassion.

The retreat will build on a strong foundation of metta to explore the nature of empathy through compassion and sympathetic joy and move into equanimity to look at its quality as an active force for good. These practices are a potent way of transforming emotional energy.
