Metta - A force for harmony in a divided world

This episode dives into the ancient practice of Metta Bhavana, also known as loving-kindness meditation.

Our speaker, Padmasagara, takes you on a personal journey, from a meticulously planned life to a one-way ticket to Venezuela, all while exploring the transformative power of Metta.

Discover how Metta transcends boundaries and divisions, fostering a deeper connection to ourselves and the world around us.

Is Metta just a concept? Or can it truly be a force for harmony in a divided world? Tune in to find out, and remember, wisdom truly meets wonder on the Buddhistisches Tor Berlin podcast.

Metta isn't just something you think, it's something you practice. Start cultivating harmony today.
