January 31st – Day-Long Four Immeasurables (Brahmaviharas) retreat. We are very happy to be able to have John Bruna return to the Here and Now Center and offer this precious teaching on the Four Immeasurables.
The Brahmaviharas, also known as the Four Imeasurables are practices that open the heart, allowing us to deepen our relationship with ourselves and others. The cultivation of equanimity, loving-kindness, compassion, and empathetic joy helps us to counteract distorted and harmful mental and emotional states. This provides the foundation for living a meaningful and fulfilling life in alignment with one’s own personal spiritual beliefs and values. One does not need to be a Buddhist to benefit from these practices; they are universal to people of all faiths, traditions and cultures.
