Kindness is one of the most basic qualities we can possess, and one of the most powerful. In Buddhism it is called metta - an opening of the heart to all that we meet. Any friendly feeling contains the kernel of metta. It is a seed that is waiting to be developed, right here amidst the conditions of our daily life.

Living with Kindness is a pithy commentary on the Buddha's teaching of metta in the Karaniya Metta Sutta. In it, Sangharakshita shows us how to cultivate the many facets of kindness in ordinary, everyday life. Outlining the nurturing conditions for kindness to grow, he encourages us to follow the path that leads to a warm and expansive heart and beyond, towards being happier and more fulfilled in ourselves, and to empathise with the joys and sufferings of all living beings.
