A Series of Four Talks on the Four Brahmaviharas

The Four Brahmaviharas, also known as the Four Infinities or the Four Immeasurables, are teachings on ways to generate love, compassion, joy, and equanimity in meditation and everyday life. It is the practice of developing loving kindness. “In Buddhism, the main aim of engaging in spiritual practices is to transform ourselves in such a way that we become more enlightened, which is to say that we aspire to become more like Buddha Shakyamuni or Gautama Buddha. This automatically suggests that spiritual practice is fundamentally about self-transformation…” In these four talks Rinpoche explains how by generating love, compassion, joy, and equanimity in order to replenish ourselves and stabilise our minds, and in this transformative way we can be more enriched and able to be more giving to others.

Religion and Spirituality

This is a series of three talks on the topic of Religion and Spirituality.
“Many people have questions about whether Buddhism is a religion or a spiritual path. These two words, religion and spirituality, are extremely loaded. That is, they have multiple meanings. People may think about religion and spirituality in different ways, so it can be regarded as a complex issue, but I aim in these three talks to make these considerations clearer and more straightforward.” Traleg Kyabgon Rinpoche IX
