Cultivating A Compassionate Relationship

This discussion continues to explore the application of mindfulness and compassion to interpersonal conflict resolution.  Peter introduced some points from the website metta.org focused on procedures developed in Gregory Kramer’s book “Insight Dialogue-The Interpersonal Path to Freedom”.  Kramer’s work closely parallels what has been explored in previous discussions on this topic, in this case specifically related to fostering close relationships in the context of current political conflicts.  These approaches were also related to discussions in previous meetings of the Tibetan Buddhist lojong mind training and conflict resolution.

Here is the handout downloaded from the metta.org website that Peter distributed to those who attended the meeting:  GREGORY KRAMER INSIGHT DIALOGUE GUIDELINES
