The Brahma Viharas: Our Heart's Innate Capacity for Love

The Brahma Viharas are the Buddha’s teachings on four aspects of our heart’s innate capacity for love, freed from personal attachment. We explore the view, attitudes and cultivations that bring forth these qualities, looking at the conditions that support them as well as the obstacles or barriers that hinder them. These aspects of love are a natural and innate human potential that are usually obscured to some degree. We discover their place in our practice and what effect and significance they have in our lives.
