  • Guided Meditation: Embodied Metta, with Tara Brach [2020-06-17]
    Lovingkindness becomes full when it is energetically experienced in our bodies. This meditation guides us in awakening the receptivity, warmth and openness of metta through our body, and then invites us to rest in the space of loving presence, as we open to whatever arises.

      Loving kindness for Jayant Avva, good wholesome food is blossoming
      The earth is ripe, tree huggers have restored the soul by hugging trees
      If there was a hole in the soul, tree hugging us the best way to fix it, trees are
      Kindness in their energy fields because they aid other energy fields in maintaining wholeness.
      Loving kindness, this is metaphysical seeming talk however maybe one day it will come in handy when you find yourself in nature noticing tree auras!

      Loving kindness Mi lo
      You planted the seed of true kindness
      On the wind, not like a farmer
      Now it is blossoming; that is the spiritual way
      The world is smiling on you
      And it is also smiling on others, a small sliver of kindness
      Has built into a substantial forest of kind flowers that reveal kind trees
      The trees teach the people and inspire deeper reverence for nature and environmentalism
      Loving kindness, the construction stopped because the people found better ways to live in the temples
      Not in destroying the natural world around them, but in learning to live sacredly.
      Loving kindness for the virtues of a society that is now not constructing anymore, and is appreciating and grounding itself
      On what its achieved already in history. Loving kindness for the earth and its flowers that heal our souls and bodies

    Loving kindness for people overcome by illusions of violence and separation, they will find a clear space, they will find themselves in meditation, loving kindness an intense understanding will draw in them, that is not violence, and not drama. What they will realize is zen

    • @user-hs6my7mt7b
      @user-hs6my7mt7b Рік тому

      Loving kindness, I no longer believe there is violence because I experience none of it and within myself there is no violence or separation from the Way, in other words I feel oneness with all creation, by observing the ultimate empathy is becoming one with everything, the truth beyond all ignorances arises.

    I have a question. I certainly do want loving kindness for all life. How does one reconcile this with my own true belief in non- dual experience and offering something like this practice to myself? I've overlooked myself for a long time. I'm sick of screens via apps. I'd like to meet a teacher in person. Thank you Tara. You always are fantastic at guiding these meditations

    A bit late, but some feedback: Slow down a bit. At the start, when describing the sky, the smile spreading towards it and then merging with it, all came by so fast that i could'nt really visualize each step well before the next instruction.

    Lovingkindness for Japan, an old country with a lot of wisdom and a strong root of peace, may that root continue to grow undisturbed. May Japan be somehow able to get by without an army, and remain humble yet truly dignified and may it be able to continue to be kind and not exploitative to the women, and to the environment of mother earth.
    Lovingkindness may there continue to be good videogames and anime coming from the land of Japan both fun and imparting sometimes kind of deep lessons of wisdom and respect for energy.
    Lovingkindness for cool japanese people

  • @yummypasta92
    @yummypasta92 3 роки тому +2

    What to do if you can't hypnotise yourself to feel the smile and feel positive? It must be nice to embody this but sometimes it's hard to trick yourself and the meditation becomes more annoying not because the guidance is bad but because you feel bad that you're not "doing it right".

    • @user-hs6my7mt7b
      @user-hs6my7mt7b 3 роки тому +3

      Just practice acceptance, and remember, meditation is not about hypnosis, the meditative state is higher consciousness while hypnosis is a lower consciousness, meditation is the result of the clear mind, this loving kindness practice is only the planting of the seeds of conditions to create a life of 'pure mind's empty thought meditation, we send conditions for meditation in every direction, calm peaceful moments in abundance, people walking around with heart awareness and ability to help each other if need be, mentions of the buddha. The world calms with the central intentions of nonharm, kindness and love being the main themes, what arises is spectacular clarity and sacred good experiences in situations of abundance of the good.

    • @user-hs6my7mt7b
      @user-hs6my7mt7b 3 роки тому +1

      If you keep making mistakes here yet are kind to yourself each time you are still setting the seeds for the incarnation (2 hours, tommorow next month or next year not necessarily not lifetime) of buddhist conditions of lasting bliss soul awareness

    • @EstebanMcC
      @EstebanMcC 3 роки тому +1

      It might be useful if you can’t find your smile or positivity to sit with that feeling, accepting that you’re just not there today. Be kind to yourself in doing so. If you can tune into the fact that the sense of ‘getting it wrong’ is just a thought arising that doesn’t need to be listened to and letting it go, while tuning into body sensations.

    @sandraheaton1084 Рік тому

    This teacher seems genuinely kind, patient and empathic. But I find these meditations create such inner rage and hatred within me, that I have to stop before the half-way point. When she tries to have us visualize a 'smile in the throat', what comes to mind is not a smile, but a jagged and bloody smile-shaped gash, like a blow from a knife, and it just keeps getting worse until I start to hyper-ventilate and have to get out. I've been trying to develop and strengthen mindfulness so as to balance these violent thoughts and emotions as they arise, but they always overpower me very quickly. I guess meditation is not for everyone. Thanks anyway - namaste.
