The Dalai Lama's "Simple Meditation"

The Dalai Lama recently recommended this morning meditation in an interview with Dan Harris on Ten Percent Happier: meditating on the nature of the mind, followed by meditating on the kindness of others.

This is an important reminder that we are never alone, that there are countless people who have forged the path we are taking today. Thank you.

Thank you for expanding and deepening my loving kindness meditations. 🙏🏻

Excellent guidance offered in a gently paced manner. Soothing voice, straightforward wording. I will return to this one.

An excellent reminder for the myriad of people who have brought me where I am today.

Absolutely incredible! Applying single pointed concentration and moving In between thoughts prepares us for loving kindness meditation. Doing this everyday will make life so much fuller for yourself and others.

Profound, beautiful and potentially life-changing. ⭐

Gratitude for this podcast and gratefulness for this moment🙏 Namaste

Thank you for this splendid and profound wisdom. Namaste

You did a very thorough and dedicated presentation.
Well done

I am grateful for this meditation this morning 🙏🙏🙏❤️

An interesting experience and definitely different. I didn’t realize how much it affected me in a good way until it was
over. Very calming.

It’s great except the intro is a bit long for diving into practice right away

Thank you for the interpretation of the his Holiness. Well done. Suggestion; thumbs can’t touch when palms are up turned. LOL

Never thought quite like this before. Thanks so much

What a wondeful technique. I will bookmark and return to this. Thank you 🙏🏼❤️

Filled my heart with awareness and love for my fellow humans 🙏
(Note for listeners: while this meditation was inspired by the Dalai Lama, it is not his voice we hear)

Beautiful meditation recommended by Delay Lama . The way to happiness is being kind and compassionate to others . Very grateful for this talk and guided meditation. It explained a lot to me and gave me peace and calmed my mind.

Thank you 🙏🏻 for a new perspective of kindness.
I often feel grateful and express gratitude for things done to help me. I feel moments of gratitude for a beautiful painting that I live with, that nourishes me, for the beautiful stitching on a simple tee shirt made in a foreign land by someone I’ll never know in this lifetime, for the young man who tends my roses. Gratitude for so much, and yet I didn’t think of the work of artists, craftspeople, and labourers as kindness. Of course it is! And now that I know it, my gratitude increases a hundredfold.

A true teaching. A little difficult to fully grasp right away but a real keeper to revisit more along my journey 🙏

So much to adore about this inspired guidance. I love expanding the “spaciousness” between thoughts! EVOLving gratefulness.org, ahimsa
