Welcome back to the Sutta Meditation Series Podcast.
In this segment, we look at the question of "HOW CAN YOU MEASURE SOMEONE'S METTA PRACTICE?" by:
- highlighting the perfection of metta by the Buddha and the Noble Arahants
- mentioning Queen Samavati who declared by the Buddha as the foremost lay female disciple in dwelling in loving kindness
- recognising higher virtue (adhisīla), higher thought (adhicitta) and higher wisdom (adhipaññā) in one's/someone's practice
- seeing the internal and external practice of loving kindness coming together
- looking at how we can honour and meditate on the Buddha and the Noble Arahants in our practise of loving kindness
Bohoma pin to the person/people who have asked this Dhamma question.
