Tonglen - A Short Practice

Tonglen is a Tibetan Buddhist practice used for the beginning of Bodhicitta - The Awakening or path to Buddhahood. Seeing the other as equal, and therefore desiring to rid any suffering as well as offering happiness and peace to another is equal to doing this unto yourself. This can be used as a kind of prayer for others or for the healing of the Earth, but also beneficial for unwanted thoughts. Taking our eyes off our issues and 'praying' for others is hugely rewarding.

If enough people were able to send/ receive Tonglen the Earth would change instantaneously.

I want to think it will make a difference. I wil continue to send positive energy.
Beautiful meditation sp very calming.

Mandy, this practice moved me to tears. I felt deeply connected to those i was practicing for and to Mother Earth to whom I was also focused on. I felt a great sense of the amount of pain my people were holding, i felt it dissolving in my chest and I had a sense of the light and positive power well up within me and I loved this immensely. 🙏🏻

Breathing for Palestine, breathing for mass deportees, breathing for all in fear and hopelessness, breathing for our earth who supports us all. Thank you for guiding AND the Heartmath info.

Thank you for this practice. My heart has felt heavy lately and I was searching for guidance. I’ve been troubled by the state of things in the world. Sending the planet and those with calloused souls gave me hope that things could change for the better. Namaste
