The Four Immeasurables

Practices to Open the Heart

The Four Immeasurables - the cultivation of loving-kindness, compassion, empathetic joy, and equanimity - is a rich suite of practices that open the heart, counter the distortions in our relationships to ourselves, and deepen our relationships to others. Alan Wallace presents a unique interweaving of teachings on the Four Immeasurables with instruction on meditative quiescence, or shamatha practice, to empower the mind. This book includes both guided meditations and lively discussions on the implications of these teachings for our life.

Excellent book but the narration was a bit stiff

This is first class Dharma right here - I felt that the narration was a bit stiff, but overall this was an excellent experience and knowledge definitely worth having

Grateful

May all beings be free from suffering and the causes of suffering. Thanks for the light.
