Lesson 4 - neutral person
Homework
Next week we're going to discuss forgiveness and do a forgiveness meditation, which is an incredibly deep and difficult topic. So, as a preparation we hope you read a chapter of a book called: "The Five Invitations."
Just Like Me contemplation, see if you can do it a few times. For some people this can really open up the heart.
Ninja/Stealth Metta to neutral people on the streets. Wishing other people well, in secret and in silence, while moving through the world.
And don't forget to do Metta everyday:
Set the intention
Try to connect with the subtle body
Metta on the benefactor
Metta on yourself
Metta on people you like
Metta on a neutral person
Ending with some gratitude + recognising needs
And don't forget your gratitude buddy
Fundamental Attribution Error
We experience ourselves from the inside and we tend to judge ourselves on the basis of thoughts, feelings and intentions. Not so much on our behavior.
We experience other people only from the outside and because of this we primarily judge them on the basis of their behavior, while there is a whole person going on inside just like you.
