<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><b>An esteemed Insight Meditation teacher leads you through the sublime qualities of Buddhism--kindness, compassion, joy, and equanimity--and how they can enrich your life</b> <p/> Compassion, kindness, equanimity, and joy are not only the fruits of the awakened life but also the path to it--attitudes of mind that can be cultivated through intention and dedication. Also known as the<i> brahma viharas</i> (sublime abodes) and the "Four Immeasurables," these enobling qualities are far more than simply the "feel-good" states they are often mistaken for. They must be pursued sincerely as a spiritual practice--not just as a means of getting a "spiritual high"--in order to experience the full extent of their power. <p/> In <i>Boundless Heart</i>, Christina Feldman presents teachings on the Four Immeasurables, exploring how they balance each other in a way that enhances them all. Her simple practices will lead you toward a life infused with kindness, compassion, joy, and equanimity--and to a way of being that promotes those qualities to the world at large.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>Thanks to Christina Feldman for this important contribution on practices to develop kindness. <i>Boundless Heart</i> helps locate these ancient and essential practices in modern life.
