Subject: Buddha-Direct 942: Blazing Goodwill!


Friends:
Cultivating the 4 Infinite States produces Infinite Gladness!
   Training Universal Friendliness induces unalloyed Joy!
   Cultivating Boundless Pity enables tranquil Tolerance!
   Developing Mutual Joy produces deep Contentment!
   Refining Equanimity establishes calm Serenity!
The Blessed Buddha repeatedly explained:
May all creatures, all breathing things,
all beings one and all, without exception,
experience joy & good fortune only.
May they not fall into any harm.
Anguttara Nikaya II, 72
With good will for the entire cosmos,
Cultivate a limitless heart:
Above, below, & all around,
Unobstructed, without hostility or hate.
Sutta Nipata I, 8

Overcome the angry by friendliness;
Overcome the wicked by goodness;
Overcome the miser by generosity;
Overcome the liar by truth.
Dhammapada 223

Train yourself in doing only pure good!
That lasts and brings great happiness.
Cultivate generosity, a peaceful living,
and a mentality of infinite friendliness.
Itivuttaka 16
