In this four-week course, we will explore the Four Immeasurables, or Boundless Qualities, of Loving Kindness, Compassion, Sympathetic Joy and Equanimity. If Shamata and Vipassana help us to see the true nature of ourselves and creation, the Four Immeasurables help us feel and experience how we are not separate. In this course, we will engage with these practices through learning, sharing with Sangha, and putting these teachings into practice to experience the benefits for ourselves, our communities, and our world.
We will meet for four consecutive 90-minute weekly sessions on Monday evenings. Each session will be facilitated by Namchak facilitator Rachel Ashley (not Lama Tsomo).
