Shawn and I are big fans of metta, as we believe love is a powerful attractor field which smooths out the rough textures in our minds, seeks unity and sameness, rather than difference and judgement. To love and be loved feels amazing, motivating and empowering.
Love makes concentration easier while releasing contraction. Metta practice is a great gateway to access concentration, which leads towards the Jhanas, which lead toward to Nirvana and ultimately free from suffering.
We all want love and by practising loving states of mind it becomes easier to notice the love in others and share your love. Your world literally becomes more loveable.
