Loving-kindness meditation

magicalunicorns

I am looking for guided loving kindness meditation that i can download from online or a CD that I can purchase. First time I practice this meditation with a group of people a few days ago and I felt so good and saw immediate results. I think the one that we tried was Alan Watts'. Thank you in advance for you answers.

Here's one by Gil Fronsdal, and one by Shaila Catherine. I also suggest these two talks by Thanissaro Bhikkhu: Metta Means Goodwill and Metta Meditation.

Thanks for those Jason .

There's a whole section worth investigating at Buddhanet with instructions and audio:

Also - "Universal Loving Kindness" by Ajahn Sumedho

Hi magicalunicorns,

Awesome name by the way, it sounds like you have plenty of metta (loving kindness) already!

Bhante Sujato recently taught a metta meditation retreat with several guided meditations recorded, I highly recommend checking it out: http://www.dhammaloka.org.au/downloads/itemlist/category/62-june-2011.html

Metta,

Here is a meditation CD From Fear to Fearlessness which contains instructions for kindness, compassion, joy, and equanimity meditations. These four are the aprimanas which protect us in fear.
