BHNN Guest Podcast – Ep. 136 – The Four Immeasurables with Lama Tsomo

Guiding us through The Four Immeasurables, author and teacher Lama Tsomo lectures about developing deep connections.

“Each of the four boundless qualities gets us past our ego fixations and joins us with another in a way that brings right relationship. We can feel that rightness and joining when it happens. As we know from neuroscience, that feeling registers in that ever-popular left middle pre-frontal lobe      — a main locust of positive emotions.” – Lama Tsomo

In this episode, Lama Tsomo teaches us about:
  • Technology as a window to the world
  • How to have deep, satisfying connection
  • The four immeasurables
  • Loving-kindness, compassion, and equanimity 
  • Near and Far Enemies
