“The Four Immeasurables”
How to be kind, wise, compassionate and joyful.
The Buddha is said to have stated that it is better to live in the Four Immeasurables within your heart than to live even in a luxurious palace. The Four Immeasurables are loving-kindness, compassion, joy and equanimity. They form the very essence of an awakened and enlightened attitude. Clive will explain how they work together to achieve this. Going back to the roots of the meaning of each of these meditations, we will see how useful it is to at least aspire to bring them into our everyday experience. Reference will be made to precious bodhicitta too.
Clive Holmes has been teaching meditation for the last twenty-five years all over the UK, as well as in Samye Dzong centres overseas. He has completed over a year in intensive retreat and has studied in Europe and India with teachers from Burma, Southeast Asia, Japan and Tibet. He also has a degree in western philosophy. He is co-editor of the books “Taming the Tiger” and “Restoring the Balance” by Choje Akong Tulku Rinpoche.
