It’s an opportunity. You’ve got some time to be by yourself to look at your own mind, straighten things out a little bit inside. If you don’t straighten them out, how are they going to get straightened out? No one else can come into your mind and do the work …
- Metta… The attitude of goodwill is called metta-cittena. The word citta in cittena can mean either heart or mind—it actually means both. The Buddha’s teachings don’t make a clear division between your thoughts and your emotions. You’re trying to develop both, which means you want your thoughts to be motivated by goodwill and you want your goodwill to have some …

… So goodwill or metta doesn’t mean that you’re going to love other people. Sometimes it means simply respecting their desire for happiness and hoping that they can look after their own happiness: “May they all look after themselves with ease.” And although metta is meant to be a limitless attitude, the Buddha does talk about it as restraint. He talks about it …- A Friend to the WorldThe Pali word metta is related to the word mitta, which means friend. Metta is the quality of a good friend, which is what you’re trying to develop as you develop thoughts of goodwill. Now, there are all kinds of friends. There are true friends and false friends. There’s skillful friendship and unskillful friendship. And it’s obvious, of course, that the …

You’ve got to work on the problems inside—the way in which you’re creating unnecessary suffering for yourself—getting past any of the obstacles in the mind that refuse to admit that, refuse to see that. Because as long as you …

Take a couple of good, long, deep, in-and-out breaths. Notice where you feel the breathing in the body. It could be anywhere at all. Don’t let your preconceived notions get in the way of sensing where the breath actually feels like it’s coming in, where it feels like it’s going out—where it feels like it …
