The Heart Of Unconditional Love

Více o knize

This four-stage approach to loving-kindness meditation aims to help individuals discover unconditional love within themselves, in their relationships, and in their perception of the world. Tulku Thondup offers detailed guidance for meditation, prayers, and visualization, which can be practiced in as little as thirty minutes per session. This unique format, presented for the first time in English, is based on the author's extensive study of traditional teachings. The practice encourages experiencing one's body, mind, and heart as sources of loving-kindness, transforming the environment into a realm filled with the blessings of the Buddhas. This meditation not only alleviates stress but also promotes healing, healthier relationships, and a positive outlook on life. By cultivating the desire for others' happiness with the unconditional love akin to a mother's care, practitioners can fill their world with joy, peace, and beauty. The training is likened to sunbathing, where one absorbs warmth and radiates it outward. The four stages include: opening the heart to the Buddha of Loving-Kindness; experiencing his love within; perceiving the world as a blessed realm; and resting in awareness of unconditional love beyond thought. This accessible format is suitable for both newcomers and experienced meditators, marking a fresh approach to loving-kindness meditation.
