His starting point here is to source notions of love in traditional teaching from the Pali Canon and in the great Mahayana sutras. A refreshing take on metta and how to cultivate it in your life. Excerpted from the talk entitled Introducing the Great Love given at Padmaloka Retreat Centre , 2004. *** Help us keep FBA Podcasts free for everyone!
