We come to our very last session with a meditation on loving kindness and dedication of merit (0:50)
Afterwards our group prepared such a lovely closing ceremony that we figured other people might like to cultivate some empathetic joy :)
Thank you for listening!

The root of all Buddhist teachings and practice is compassion. We start out with the reality of suffering – something that we have all experienced. The background radiation of anxiety has got to go. It is the result of grasping onto what is not – what is not is “I” and “me.”
We must discover who we really are. We are born with inborn ignorance then we learn some more fabricated ignorance. Go to that which I am before I reified all my human roles.
Shamata is not easy. There is nothing left of who you thought you were. The substrate consciousness is bare, raw being. Go in and observe the agent – who, who, who? Is there anything more than a concept?
Karma must ripen.
