The latest video talk from the 2013 Buddhafield Festival features Kulamitra and a talk with the paradoxical title ‘Warm our Hearts - Let the Rain Come In!’. Exploring loving-kindness, he emphasises that developing it takes sustained effort at frequent intervals - but this, paradoxically, means spontaneously opening to everything around us as we discover and expand our capacity to love.

The talk was given in the Festival’s Dharma Parlour area on July 18 2013, as part of the overall theme of ‘Fire In The Heart’, with Amitabha, the red Buddha of the West, presiding. Kulamitra is a long-time member of the Triratna Buddhist Order and a Trustee of Karuna.
