In this episode you'll learn:

What the divine abodes, or brahmavihārā, are
How each of the four abodes—goodwill (mettā), compassion (karuṇā), empathetic joy (muditā) and equanimity (upekkhā)—work
Why it's hard to follow the precepts when we do not develop these four qualities
How the brahmavihārā, through an interest in others, leads to relief of suffering
Why the brahmavihārā are not emotional excitement
How the divine abodes lead into one another successively
How the abodes eventually lead us into seeing things clearly
The relationship between the brahmavihārā and our behavior
