MESSAGE #545 - LESSONS FROM A MEDITATION MASTER . . .

Jack Kornfield is one of the foremost Buddhist meditation teachers in the world.

Here’s a passage from Kornfield taken from the book “Buddhist Offerings: 365 Days” by Olivier and Danielle Follmi . . .

Begin to recite inwardly the following phrases directed to yourself.

You begin with yourself because without loving yourself it is almost impossible to love others . . .

May I be filled with loving-kindness.

May I be well.

May I be peaceful and at ease.

May I be happy.
