Dhammagiri Buddhist Podcasts - A podcast by Dhammagiri Forest Hermitage

Karuṇā, 'Compassion', is the heartfelt wish for all beings to be free from suffering. It is one of the 'Brahmavihāras', the 'Divine Abodes', which the mind can use as an internal dwelling place in meditation. It is also known as 'Appamañña-Vihāra', an unlimited, infinite home for our mind.In this guided meditation, Ajahn Dhammasiha encourages the use of a short formula that we silently repeat internally, to slowly but steadily generate the liberating emotion of compassion:"May all beings be free from suffering!""May all beings be free from suffering!""May all beings be free from suffering!"...www.dhammagiri.org.auwww.facebook.com/dhammagiri-forest-hermitagewww.tinyletter.com/dhammagiri/archivewww.vimeo.com/dhammatalks
