Description
Mettā (Pāli) or Maitrī (Sanskrit) means unconditional and unattached loving kindness. It is one of the ten pāramitās of the Theravāda school of Buddhism, and the first of the four Brahmavihāras. The mettā bhāvanā (cultivation of mettā) is a popular form of meditation in Buddhism.
The object of mettā meditation is to cultivate loving kindness (love without attachment, non-exclusive love) towards all sentient beings. The practice usually begins with the meditator cultivating loving kindness towards themselves (though this is not specifically recommended by the Buddha himself in the relevant suttas/sutras), then their loved ones, friends, teachers, strangers and finally their enemies. It is a good way to calm down a distraught mind because it is an antidote to anger. Someone who has cultivated mettā will not be easily angered and can quickly subdue anger that arises. They will be more caring, more loving, and more likely to love unconditionally.

Apart from my email going 'ding' halfway through, yeah, nice. I like the hint of really subby sub that keeps drifting in and out. And the panning's cool: keeps you alert.

I love the religious information, yes indeed we can all do with a little more loving kindness in our hearts in this deeply troubled world, may music unite us all in our personal journeys, may positivity and hope win the day x and this piece provides an amazing backdrop for introspection

gee unit
by the way this is not a religious information at all.
Buddhism is not a religion the way as eruopeans/americans and middle easterns think about religion....
this music is nothing,....my music is nothing...
I just wanted to explain what METTA is...
I don't like putting names on thing without sense.
metta is not about religion, is about human behaviour.

Interesting....the root meaning of "religion" is to "rejoin", so in that respect the spiritual practise of buddhism is religious in its quest to dissolve the ego, and perceive the void and universal mind. In many ways the mystic core of islam, sufism, and gnosticism of early christianity have much in common with buddhism, but western culture has lost much of its understanding of the esoteric truths, which buddhism has preserved.
