Tonglen Compassion Meditation

Tonglen Compassion Meditation

Author: Yeshe Rabgye January 10, 2017 Duration: 16:48
This is a compassion guided meditation practice. You breathe in suffering and breathe out compassion. You turn what you think of as poison into medicine. Negative thinking causes us to make poor choices, so by doing this meditation you will be letting go of negativity, opening your heart and developing critical thinking that will lead you to make wise choices. The meditation also helps you deal effectively with difficult people and stressful situations. You will be replacing negativity with compassion and wisdom, which will help heal yourself, each other and the world.

Yeshe Rabgye, a Buddhist monk originally from England, brings a grounded and accessible perspective to ancient practices in Buddhism Guide Meditations. Drawing from his experience teaching across the globe, each session feels less like a formal lecture and more like a practical conversation about integrating mindfulness into the complexities of modern life. You’ll hear his guidance on meditation techniques, discussions on core Buddhist principles, and explorations of how these teachings directly support mental well-being. The tone is consistently calm and clear, stripping away unnecessary mystique to focus on what is genuinely useful. Whether you are completely new to these ideas or looking to deepen an existing practice, this podcast provides a steady, compassionate companion. Rabgye’s approach is notably down-to-earth, often relating profound concepts to everyday challenges, making the wisdom feel immediately applicable. It’s a space for quiet reflection and practical insight, where the emphasis is on direct experience rather than abstract theory. Tuning in regularly offers a chance to pause, reset, and cultivate a sense of inner stability amidst the noise of the world.
