Lesson: Lovingkindness with Sharon Salzberg

Today's episode is an excerpt of Sharon Salzberg's Commune course on Compassionate Resilience. Lovingkindness is the common term for what in the Buddhist tradition is called metta. We talk about lovingkindness not in terms of liking somebody or approving of them; rather, lovingkindness is about having this bone-deep recognition that our lives are connected.
