More Compassion and Greater Tolerance

For centuries our spiritual teachers and leaders have been advocating more compassion and greater tolerance. But how do we practise compassion and tolerance with so much noise and doom and gloom in the world?

On the journey of personal growth everything manifests from the inside-out. If we would like to experience greater compassion and greater tolerance, we need to be greater compassion and greater tolerance.

From the teachings of the east we can each cultivate compassion and tolerance through the 'loving kindness meditation'. This meditation has 5 levels of 'loving kindness':

Loving kindness towards the self
Loving kindness towards a friend or family member
Loving kindness towards a stranger or neutral person
Loving kindness towards a challenging or difficult person
Loving kindness towards all of humanity

To practise this meditation here is what you need to do:

Find a quiet place where you can be alone for at least 10 minutes
Ensure that you are sitting comfortably
Close your eyes and breathe deeply in through the nose and out through the mouth
Focus on the beating of your heart
Create a mantra such as "May I experience only peace, calm and love"
Wrap this mantra in a white light and visualize it going out from your heart to the heart of all the individuals that you are meditating on
Allow compassion and tolerance to flow from your heart and allow the mantra to move freely in the world, without restriction
When it comes to all of humanity I like to image the mantra and light engulfing the world

I have personally witnessed this meditation have a profound impact on individuals from all walks of life including hard nosed businessmen and skeptical individuals. Try it for yourself and share your results with me at paul@paulghezzi.com.
