Guided Meditation - Tonglen, Beginning with Receiving Love

David Oromith · 23 minutes · recorded July 2, 2025

Begins with a preliminary practice of receiving. Bring to mind someone who has wished you real love, and feel it arriving like warm sunshine. Only then does the exchange start: we breathe in a loved one's suffering as a dark cloud and send back light. It widens to a small group, then to as many beings as your courage allows.
