Episode notes
Devotion Before Compassion
- Devotion and love come before compassion because it's easier to open hearts when it's not difficult.
- Compassion requires opening to suffering, which is a harder step than simply loving in easier circumstances.
Practice Loving Fundamental Equality
- Practice seeing others as fundamentally wanting happiness and suffering less like yourself.
- Begin with loved ones, move to neutral people, then those difficult to connect with for gradual heart opening.
Use Soft Looking to Open Heart
- Practice soft seeing by allowing visual impressions to come rather than grasping with your eyes.
- Soft looking fosters surrender and opens the heart more easily to love and presence.
