Deepen a Caring Heart: From Self-Compassion to Bodhicitta
Please join us for a course on how to expand and deepen our loving-kindness and compassion. Each of us has a basic goodness with qualities of caring for others that simply needs to be deepened and expanded. We will start with how to develop self-compassion and use that as our basis for deepening our skillful compassion for others.
We will be meditating, listening, contemplating, questioning and discussing to further illuminate and develop our naturally abiding basic caring heart. Please join us on this journey of exploration and learning.
