This talk was originally published on Dharmaseed.org

In this 2017 recording from the Spirit Rock Meditation Center, Trudy Goodman leads a talk on:

• Loving kindness as the antidote to fear
• Taming our inner aggression
• Strengthening the Brahmaviharas
• Offering Metta to ourselves and others
• The miracle of connecting to each other
• The jellyroll practice
• A traditional loving-kindness practice

“You are the source of life, and the mystery, and the magic of life itself manifesting as this body and everything it knows how to do and this mind and all the capacities and intelligence that it has and this ability to connect with each other in ways that are so, sometimes miraculous, sometimes painful too. But, all the abilities that we have, this is really what we’re treasuring and offering our respect and reverence to.” – Trudy Goodman
