In this episode, Bhante Sathi explores how true meditation transforms us from self-centered individuals into universal beings grounded in mindfulness, compassion, and loving-kindness. He explains that through consistent practice, we begin to see the impermanence and interconnectedness of all life, letting go of ego-driven reactions and embracing deeper, more meaningful relationships. Meditation, he reminds us, is not an escape from life, but a path to living with wisdom, peace, and an open heart.

The parts you wish you could just have an 'ectomy' and get rid of them. A shame-ectomy or a blame-ectomy, whatever parts of yourself you find difficult to love, just hold them in some tenderness and care." – Trudy GoodmanSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Loving kindness is simply the intention of unconditional good will to all beings, without any distinction. Ajahn Dhammasiha explains benefits of a well established practice of loving kindness ('Mettā'). When we experience benefits of our metta practice (for instance healthy, peaceful sleep and waking up happily), they are the most powerful motivation to continue to develop our loving kindness even further.Website⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Our Spotify Playlists⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Newsletter⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Dhammagiri Youtube Channel⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Pics⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠#metta #lovingkindness #dhammatalk #buddhism #goodwill

(Spirit Rock Meditation Center) In this guided meditation, connected to the later talk on "Non-Harming," we begin with about 8 minutes of settling and becoming more present, developing more samadhi (concentration). Then there is a period of lovingkindness (metta) practice, including starting where the lovingkindness flows the easiest and then extending the lovingkindness to many other beings. This is followed by mindfulness practice, with guidance on exploring when there are negative or blaming views of self or another. Finally, we close with several reflection questions related to how there is harming of self and/or others at times in our lives.

Equanimity is a quality developed alongside loving-friendliness, compassion, and appreciative joy to help us treat all beings with equal care and respect. In this podcast, Bhante Sathi discusses how equanimity is cultivated and the inner freedom it enhances in everyone's daily life.

Loving-kindness meditation, also called metta,  springs from a basic understanding of human nature: On one hand, we might truly believe that  compassion makes the world better—and on the other, we might struggle to offer it to ourselves and to others for various reasons.  Metta practices, like the one Dr. Emma Seppälä leads this week, offer a simple, structured way to help us  gently expand our capacity to both give and receive love.  As a bestselling author, Yale lecturer, and international keynote speaker, Emma Seppälä teaches executives at the Yale School of Management and is faculty director of the Yale School of Management's Women's Leadership Program. A psychologist and research scientist by training, her expertise is the science of happiness, emotional intelligence, and social connection. Her bestselling book The Happiness Track (HarperOne, 2016) has been translated into dozens of languages. Her new book is Sovereign (Hay House, 2024). Seppälä is also the Science Director of Stanford University's Center for Compassion and Altruism Research and Education. The transcription of this guided meditation will be online at Mindful.org next week.  Stay curious, stay inspired.

In this talk we explore the Buddhist heart practice of metta—a boundless, radiant wish for the well-being of all beings, including ourselves. Through meditation, reflection, and real-life stories, we examine how lovingkindness can soften resentment, humanize strangers, and even transform our relationship with those we struggle to forgive. Like the sun offering light without discrimination, metta invites us to live with generosity of spirit and openhearted presence. This episode is both a guided practice and a call to remember: what we shine our attention on, we help ripen and release. This talk was given during the Tuesday night program in Vancouver, WA on June 24th 2025. ★ Support this podcast ★

This episode of the podcast is a guided meditation-in-motion, intended as a dynamic (yet gentle) way to explore Metta or Lovingkindness Meditation. You might think of it as a complement or alternative to the traditional seated Metta Meditation practice. (The meditation itself will start at ~ 3:30 after a brief introduction.) Metta means lovingkindness, goodwill, friendliness, or benevolence. We'll be using simple Qigong-inspired movements to invoke and express kindness for ourselves and for others. Classic Metta Meditations often use the repetition of phrases like “May I (or you, or all beings) be safe, May I (you/all beings) be happy, May I (you/all beings) be healthy, May I (you/all beings) live with ease.” Our movements themselves can be done in a way that promotes the sense of safety, happiness, health, and ease, AND I will invite you to layer in the phrases along with the movements to strengthen the intention. The movements in this meditation will include a Qigong form called "Waterfall," in which we'll imagine gathering goodness, and then showering ourselves with that benevolent energy. Then, with "Pebble in the Pond," our movement will symbolize sending our Metta wishes out as ripples in the peaceful water. My goal was to describe the movements clearly enough so you could follow along with just the audio. It's definitely ok to just approximate what you imagine I'm describing - the spirit of kindness and goodwill is what we're trying to bring forward here, rather than precise, perfect movements. It's meant to be more like a guided meditation that just happens to involve moving your body. This meditation can be done either standing or seated in a chair. You can have your eyes open or close them, but if you're standing, you may find that keeping them open (with a soft gaze) helps your balance.  I hope you will enjoy this moving meditation, and that it will invite a sense of kindness, embodiment, connection, and ease. ------------- For more links and resources mentioned in this episode, find the show notes at movedtomeditate.yoga/podcast.

What if there's a way to meet frustration, loneliness, or even a difficult person—with something softer and something stronger at the same time? In today's episode, we explore the transformative practice of Loving-Kindness, also known as Metta—a simple but radical form of meditation that teaches us how to see others, and ourselves, through the eyes of compassion. You'll hear a story about a yoga class in Seattle, a rattlesnake on a trail run, and what happens when you decide to look people in the eye—even when they look away. Drawing on the timeless wisdom of Sharon Salzberg, the words of Jesus Christ, and the teachings of the Buddha, Danielle guides you through a practice that's more than a moment of peace—it's a blueprint for becoming who you were always meant to be. This is the practice for when your heart feels guarded. For when you don't know what to pray or how to cultivate charity. For when you want to lead with light, but the world feels heavy. You'll learn: What Metta really means (and how to use it) The spiritual practice hidden in Matthew 5:44 to love your enemies Why the hardest person to love is often… you How to offer compassion without feeling fake A 7-minute guided Loving-Kindness meditation you can return to again and again Plus, Danielle shares how practicing Metta helped her form a soul-friendship in a new city, and how even a rattlesnake can become a teacher. Whether you're brand-new to meditation or ready to deepen your spiritual practice, this episode will meet you right where you are—and walk with you toward more peace. Because compassion is not weakness— It's strength wrapped in softness. It's charity in action. And as Moroni says, “Charity never faileth.” Where you can connect more with Danielle:   Danielle's website Follow Danielle on Instagram Sign up for Danielle's personal newsletter Learn more about trips to Italy with Danielle and friends Danielle's music on Spotify

In this podcast, Bhante Sathi explores the practice of sympathetic joy (mudita) as the ability to genuinely feel happiness for others' success by first understanding and cultivating joy within oneself, free from jealousy or comparison. True compassion and mindfulness allow us to make necessary judgments in daily life, not based on emotion or ego, but rooted in wisdom and intention. Through this balanced approach, even challenging roles like judges, teachers, or parole officers can be aligned with spiritual practice when guided by clarity, responsibility, and inner awareness.

Gil's Arena Reacts To An INSANE Final Day Of The NBA Season as Gilbert Arenas & The Gil's Arena Crew return to Gil's Arena and react to one of the crazy ending of the 2024-25 NBA Season. They kick off the show by breaking down Game 7 of The NBA Finals where the OKC Thunder proved why they were the best team in the NBA all season and sealed their legacies with an NBA Championship over the Indiana Pacers. They discuss what this incredible season capped off by an NBA Finals MVP means for Shai Gilgeous Alexander and debate if this incredibly young Thunder team gave birth to the next NBA dynasty with their championship win. They then react to the most heartbreaking news from the night as Tyrese Haliburton's improbable run through the NBA Playoffs was cut short due to an Achillies injury that sunk the Pacers chances early on in this game. They discuss what's next for the Pacers as they must try and get back to the Finals without their superstar point guard next season and debate if it was the right call to allow Haliburton to play through a calf strain in Games 6 & 7. Next, they react to the blockbuster Kevin Durant trade that saw the NBA Legend get traded from the Phoenix Suns to the Houston Rockets in exchange for Jalen Green, Dillon Brooks and a handful of draft picks and set the sports world ablaze ahead of Game 7. They debate if this was the right move for the Houston Rockets as they look to elevate themselves into the upper tier of the NBA and discuss what's next for the Phoenix Suns after dismantling their superteam and leaving Devin Booker with a floundering franchise once again. Finally, NBA Champion Metta World Peace enters Gil's Arena to give his take on the incredible NBA Finals, break down his experience playing alongside legends like Kobe Bryant and Tracy McGrady and reveal the truth on being the face of the D-Band.
