The Quieter Side
Sometimes happiness is all fireworks and starbursts. Sometimes it is gentler, like the singing brook, or the wind rustling through the leaves. Everyone says, we need to learn how to meditate to be truly present with our joy. If so, here's something to meditate on. It's called the metta prayer and I've taken it from Lama Surya Das's Awakening the Buddha Within:
May all beings be happy, content and fulfilled.
May all beings be healed and whole.
May all have whatever they want and need.
May all be protected from harm, and free from fear.
May all beings enjoy inner peace and ease.
May all be awakened, liberated and free.
May there be peace in this world, and throughout the entire universe.
