	[ PRACTICES ONLINE - Daily Practices ] PRACTICE 3: CONTEMPLATION ON THE PRACTICE OF GIVING AND TAKING (Tong Len) This is an excellent meditation practice to develop a caring attitude in our hearts toward everyone in our lives, especially those that we have difficulty with. And it’s a wonderful meditation to do when one has an illness, to cultivate empathy, or to generate happiness. Tong Len practice cultivates love and compassion for ourselves, those we are indifferent toward, and those who harm us. It’s a great way to learn to be kind to yourself and others.
