Listen "Unbounded Love—More Powerful than Anger | Ayya Niyyānika"
Episode Synopsis
In this talk, Ayya Niyyānika, speaks about how to cultivate a sense of care instead of aversion to the circumstances of the world.
My mind will not get bent out of shape
And no evil speech will I spew
With kind care
And continued warm heart
No anger inside
Is the way to go in all situations.
