When the world is hurting, how do we bear witness without shutting down—or being swept away?

I was invited to offer Breathing Compassion, a guided meditation rooted in the Tonglen practice, in response to the heartbreaking events in Iran and offered for all of us facing the pain of a world in distress.

​

May all beings be safe and protected.

May all beings be free from suffering.

May all beings be free from hate and enmity.

​

May all beings be free.
