Two talks address: How do we awaken from the contempt and hatred that causes so much suffering in our world? Part 1 looks at how we can use the practices of mindfulness and compassion to decondition our habits of self-blame and self-hatred, and the importance of helping each other defuse the trance of unworthiness. We need our deepened dedication to love: By intentionally arousing compassion for ourselves and others, we directly contribute to the evolution of consciousness in our world.
