Activists Taking Care Of Both Themselves And The World

In this recording from a live street meditation in Oslo, Norway, on the 21st of August 2025, Gunaketu first addresses the activists about the need to transform both our outer world and our inner world - our hearts and minds. This means to live one's ideals, also when engaging in non-violent actions or civil disobedience, and to take care of oneself and friends.

In the meditation, Gunaketu invites us to reach down to the Earth and feel the Earth reaching up to hold and protect us. He then leads us in a variation of the classical meditation on loving kindness or "metta bhavana". The session is completed with some lovely harp music - and the bells from the Town Hall.

As this is a live recording, the sound quality is not as good as it would otherwise be.
