Lokah samastah sukino bhavantu - "May all beings be happy and free of suffering."

Compassion for all is the higher practice that releases us from deep-rooted egoic self-centered-ness, and expands our existence to freedom from karma / suffering (or liberation, moksha).

Daily practice of happiness-friendliness re-establishes and expands the innate serenity of our minds. And through this regular practice we can experience the true self that is free of karmic imprints and afflictions. Firmly established in the eternal self, all actions are pure.

Namaste.

(a Jivamukti Yoga class open to all levels, but if you are beginner, please practice with consideration to your abilities)

PS: If you wish to learn more, the practice is also called maitri-karuna , meta bhavana or just "meta" depending on the spiritual lineage.
