The Four Heavenly Abodes:
Opening the Heart-Mind
?
“Out of the soil of friendliness grows the beautiful bloom of Compassion watered by tears of joy and sheltered by the cool tree of equanimity.â€
~ 14th Century Tibetan Poet
?
Led by Lhasha Tizer, Community Dharma Leader and Mary Grace Naughton, Mindfulness and Yoga Teacher
There are four beautiful qualities of heart and mind for dwelling in the world. They can be cultivated through meditation and daily life practice, and are composed of Metta or loving friendliness, Karuna or compassion, Mudita or appreciative joy, and Upekkha or equanimity.?
We will study and explore each of these 4 Heavenly Abodes as a force in opening the heart so we can live with greater peace and contentment. You are welcome to attend one class or all four in the series. The first class will be Lovingkindness. Classes consist of meditation, dharma talks, yoga, discussion, Q&A, and small group inquiry.?
