Tonglen (Giving & Receiving) Meditation

This traditional Tonglen meditation practice trains us not to turn away from suffering and discomfort, but to welcome and transform it into peace and spaciousness. We begin by turning toward our own suffering, then toward the pain of another, and finally, toward the collective suffering of the world.

Through this courageous exchange, we discover that our own hearts are wide enough to hold it all.
