Reflection and Practice


Read and reflect upon the Simile of the Saw, MN 21. Notice times when you pretend to be kinder than you really feel, in order to maintain some type of persona or image. Practice metta with the instructions from this sutta in those situations. Can it be done without denying your emotions or reactions, yet not acting from them?
