Taste of Buddhism - "Combating Coronavirus Fear with Compassion" - Scott Snibbe

Taste of Buddhism - "Combating Coronavirus Fear with Compassion" - Scott Snibbe This program was offered via Facebook livestream on March 22nd from 10:30am-12pm With fear and anxiety mounting over the Coronavirus, we present a discussion and guided meditation counteracting fear with compassion. We’ll share the meditation technique of Taking and Giving (Tonglen) that soothes our own fear and anxiety through imagining how others are suffering just as we are, and sincerely wishing to help, to take away our own and others’ pain.
