If you're not from #gaza the ongoing pleas for help may discomfort you: you may feel your empathy is being depleted and turned to exhaustion. Keeping your empathy fresh is hard work in the face of our current reality.

But I can easily assure you that our discomfort is insignificant compared to the horrors continuing to happen in the world every day. If you want to be more comfortable, just help stop the baddies 🀷

And if you want to refresh your empathy, I can warmly recommend some #metta #meditation πŸ™

But I do believe that insight, pause, the gaze of tenderness, compassion that we practice are very much needed in the world. #karuna #metta #muditha #meditationszentrumbeatenberg

If either science or Buddhism is right, there is no difference between you and other people, animals, plants, etc. We're all the same matter/energy in different configurations. Therefore, we should see everyone and everything as our family, and should take care of each other as well as possible.

As I meditate tonight, I radiate love in all directions - desiring peace, love and joy for all! #metta #lovingkindness #meditation #saha #sahadukkha
Without #meditation, it is common for the mind to turn on itself. Negative self-talk is the illusory self turned inward. Train the mind to connect with others. #Meditating on Dependent Arising helps to see connections. #Metta meditation helps to radiate #compassion for all. The mind needs positive things upon which it can focus. Get out of your head and into the Saha! #saha #sahadukkha

Intentionally calling to mind the desire for myself and others to be safe, healthy, and at ease in the world can be challenging enough on its own.

Dealing with the gulf between that intention and our lived reality is a whole other matter, even if I understand that acting with that intention in mind can help over the long-term.

May all beings be happy and free.
May all beings be #peaceful.
May all beings be free from the #violence of #war and its far reaching effects.
May there be a cease fire for the battles in our own minds.
May all beings be free from #sexualMisconduct.
May #humantrafficing cease.
May all beings be liberated.
