A Journey into the Heart’s Natural Qualities
4-Month Series, on last Sunday of the month

The Brahmavihāras—often translated as the “Divine Abodes”—are four beautiful qualities of the heart taught by the Buddha: loving-kindness, compassion, appreciative joy, and equanimity. These qualities are not something we have to create from scratch; they are capacities we can gently uncover and strengthen through mindful awareness and practice. In these four months, we will explore one Brahmavihāra each month, allowing time to understand, experience, and integrate each quality into daily life.
This program is offered freely, with no registration needed. If you’d like to donate to the teacher or the center, you can visit IMC’s donation page here.
心灵之旅
四梵住（Divine Abodes）——通常被译为”神圣的居所”——是佛陀教导的四种美好的心灵品质：慈心、悲心、随喜心，和平衡心（舍心）。这些品质并不是凭空创造出来的；而是本来就在我们的心底，我们可以通过正念静观来找回和培养的内在品质。在这四堂课程中，我们将每个月探索一种梵住品质，来理解、体验和将每种品质融入日常生活。
