Description

Vajragupta introduces the Triratna Urban Retreat 2013 on the theme of loving kindness - 'Blazing Like the Sun'. The Buddha spoke of it like this:

"Loving kindness,
which is freedom of heart,
it glows, it shines, it blazes forth."

Loving kindness ('metta') is a quality that can be cultivated towards yourself and others as a new way to respond to the ups and downs of everyday life. Each day we'll go further into this quietly beautiful, radical practice.
