PRACTICE 4: The Seven Point Practice for Developing a Good Heart (Lojong)
Developing a good heart is the cornerstone of spiritual practice. These teachings
and meditations provide concise, efficient methods to develop heartfelt love and
compassion for all those around us. Lojong is an inspiring practice that trains you to
make the most of life by caring about others, and to integrate that attitude into
your daily life. This Seven Point Lojong is based upon the Advices for Training
Oneself in the Greater Way by Geshe Chekawa (1101-1175), and contains many
powerful advices on how to practice thinking and acting like a bodhisattva. These
teachings and practices were kept secret for centuries because masters of the past
did not want their seemingly mystical verses to be misunderstood. This mindfulness
Practice consists of fifteen sessions recorded from two original retreats, along with
corresponding written materials, which are comprised of readings, homework,
quizzes, and answer keys. This topic was covered twice, each time with a different
emphasis, and both versions have been provided.Practice Four contains the following PDF files:
