S9 Ep6: "Meditation on Friendliness" by Paul Harris

Mind is a tool that we can learn to use effectively. Developing the practice of Metta teaches us how to use  thinking skilfully. We learn how to acknowledge our negative habit patterns and ways of overcoming resentment. We can practice mindfulness as a love for all objects. We see how developing a friendly attitude changes our perception of the world. The sense of love that emerges is not enlightenment but has a similar quality, in the sense that all love is the absence of division.





Paul Harris is the Spiritual Head and principal meditation teacher at the House of Inner Tranquillity.
