“Lovingkindness: it’s not something simpering, saccharine, weak or foolish. It is actually something that is full of tremendous strength,” explains renowned meditation teacher, Sharon Salzberg in her Speakeasy from Wanderlust Tremblant. When people say to her that they have reservations about developing a mindset of ‘lovingkindness’, proffering excuses of not wanting to become weak or vulnerable, she responds by translating lovingkindness not as a means of caring for others, but as a connection with others. “It doesn’t mean you like everybody. It actually doesn’t even mean you like anybody! But we recognize deep down that our lives have something to do with one another, that we recognize something in one another. It’s like the children’s rule that “everyone gets to play”. They don’t have to be your best friend, but everyone deserves a shot at fundamental respect.” Join Sharon as she goes deeper into the roots of lovingkindness, and learn: • the three concepts that are traditionally taught alongside and in support of ‘lovingkindness’, • how the original Buddhist term ‘metta’ plays into her description of lovingkindness as connection, • how we can recognize the interrelated nature of life while still retaining boundaries from things we know will drain our energy, • why the notion of interrelated life is neither sentimental, fanciful or even necessarily pleasant - it just is.

Loving kindness for me, I will not go to jail, I only committed a misdemeanor, misuse of electronic mail by accident (I did not receive the calls telling me to stop because they came from a different number than the recipient of the messages, otherwise I would have immediately stopped) Also, I used the messages to express my political view that we should study books that encourage peace and not war, and to encourage environmentalism. According to the law, if you are expressing a political view, it cannot be classified as misuse of electronic mail, so it will hold up in court, if not to dismiss the case at least for a very reduced seduced (a fine of 500 dollars or less)
