Compassion. Giving a Taking: Tonglen
Today’s talk is about compassion. Self-compassion is wanting to decrease our own suffering and Compassion for others means wanting others to have less suffering. In order to have compassion for others we must first have compassion for ourselves. Today’s Meditation is called “Giving and Taking”. In Tibetan, it is called “Tonglen”. In this meditation you will learn how to increase compassion by exchanging yourself for others.
