Home > Meditation Books > Mindfulness Meditation > The Four Immeasurables: Practices to Open the Heart by B. Alan Wallace More views Boundless Heart presents a unique interweaving of teachings on the Four Immeasurables and instructions on quiescence, or shamatha, meditation practices. Alan Wallace's teachings on the Four Immeasurables are based on Buddhaghosa's Path of Purification and address the cultivation of loving kindness, compassion equanimity, and empathetic joy. It is a rich suite of practices that open the heart, counter the distortions in our relationships to ourselves, and deepen our relationships to others. LIST PRICE: $16.95 Our Price: $14.40 (You save $2.55) Stock Status:(Out of Stock) Product Code: S-2945 Qty: Specifics On these foundational practices of Theravada Buddhism, Alan brings to bear the insights and approaches of the Tibetan tradition. Juxtaposed with the Four Immeasurables, he presents teachings on shamatha meditation practice to empower the mind and render it "fit for service." His meditation instructions provide the steps for the complete achievement of shamatha. This book is based on teachings given during a week-long retreat at a remote and beautiful site in the Eastern Sierras, and in its tone we experience the intimacy and focus of the setting. In addition to Alan's unique style of presentation, blending vivid story-telling with incisive analysis, the book includes both guided meditations and lively discussions in which the participants grapple with the implications of these teachings for their own lives.Paperback, 183 pp. Share your knowledge of this product with other customers...
