With Compassionate Understanding by Rosemary Weissman

A Compassionate Attitude encourages us not to cause harm or difficulty for ourselves or others. The more we develop Compassion within, the more we see that Mindfulness is an extremely valuable way to develop our Understanding of Life in all aspects. Then, with this Understanding, we can work toward increasing beneficial qualities and lessening unbeneficial qualities. This will create the causes and conditions that will produce more Peace, Contentment and deeper Happiness.

This is a complete record of talks from a 10-day Theravadin Buddhist Vipassana Meditation Retreat, by Rosemary & Steve Weissman, teachers of Wat Kow Tahm International Meditation Center, Koh Pah-ngan Island, Thailand.
