Alan Wallace Live From Phuket!

Today we had a very deep practice on Compassion. The introduction contains great examples as always in order to turn our minds towards the cultivation of compassion, to make real the suffering of others and to unveil our innate compassion, with the boldness, courage, and vision to realize what is happening, attend to the world of possibility, and aspire "may there be freedom." This will leave us poised for action and ready to come out of meditation and do some good in the world.The outro talks about the peril of classifying ourselves as "not a loving person" or "not a compassionate person." Being more reserved does not mean being less compassionate. Alan talks about the obscurations that these feelings bring, and how to peel off the crusts and reveal the compassion that we do not get from anyone, not even from the meditation, because it's already there. The meditation just blows the dust of our eyes.You may notice that this podcast is quite short. Unfortunately my poor laptop was
