The 5 hindrances were taught by the Buddha as five obstacle to practice and waking up. The 5 hindrances are extremely relevant to the modern world. This guided meditation asks the meditator to open to see the 5 hindrances at work in their own life as a way to cultivate clarity, wisdom and compassion for themselves and others. It also touches upon possible antidotes to the hindrances, specifically calling upon the 4 Bramaviharas: equanimity, compassion, lovingkindness, and sympathetic joy.
