Loving Kindness Meditation In English And Te Reo

Kia ora koe, mahorahora i te whakawhara
Kia hauora koe, mahorahora i te mamae
Kia hari koe, mahorahora i te pouri
Kia ngawari, kia ngakaunui tou oranga ki roto i tenei ao.

May you be safe, and free from danger
May you be healthy, and free from pain
May you be happy, and free from distress
May you live in this world with ease and goodwill.

A Thought for Today

We are the first generation of spiritual aspirants to attempt to find a life of awakening and freedom while living in the world rather than within the cloistered walls of a monastery.

There are few sure voices or blueprints to guide us. We are learning the lessons of engaged renunciation — treasuring simplicity within a life of consciously loving, working, and creating. The dilemma each of us faces is how to meet our heart’s longing of calm simplicity amid a complex life.

It is a journey that may involve a change in our lives. It will surely involve a change of heart. It is a journey that asks for honesty, commitment, wisdom, and a willingness to learn.
