Dawn Mauricio: Morning Instructions: Mettā for Oneself to Know Kuan Yin (Retreat at Spirit Rock)
11/27/2025
(Spirit Rock Meditation Center) When we offer mettā to ourselves, we're not trying to transform our experience into unconditional self-love—we're learning to love the parts of ourselves that don't want to love us back. This practice invites us to recognize all our parts because when we can love the fragmented parts of ourselves, we begin to see ourselves as sacred beings, and in knowing ourselves deeply, we come to know Kuan Yin.

Devin Berry: The Overview Effect of the Heart
11/25/2025
(Insight Meditation Society - Forest Refuge) Metta is a profound shift in perspective, linking the astronauts overview effect with the Buddha's teachings on Boundlessness.
