How to create more happiness: step #1

The meditation begins at 11:11
Audio only version is here.

Hello and I hope you are well! I am delighted to have a chance to practice meditation together.

Over the last 8 weeks, we looked at each step along the noble eightfold path which describes the path away from suffering and toward libertation. I heard from many of you about how useful that was. I really enjoyed it too! So, in the spirit of continuing our broad exploration of key wisdom teachings that might be useful in everyday life, this week we begin an overview of the six paramitas.

“Paramita” means transcendent action. The six transcendent actions are generosity, discipline, patience, exertion, mindfulness, and wisdom. These are the actions to take if we want to bring more love and goodness into our lives. (Which I know you do.)

We begin with generosity, of which there are three kinds. Before today’s practice session, I offer you some thoughts on this most essential action which lays the groundwork for a life of kindness-in-action.

Enjoy!

With love, Susan
