We must practice deep looking and contemplation in order to understand and cultivate loving-kindness, compassion, joy and equanimity. In cultivating loving-kindness, we offer happiness; in nurturing compassion, we relieve others’ suffering; practicing diligently strengthens our inner source of joy; and developing equanimity helps us let go of all hatred, prejudices, and entanglements.
