In the second part of this talk on love, Reggie discusses the ways in which we turn away from the intimacy of space. He says that in retreat, we learn how to open to the fundamental emptiness of our lives. From that emptiness, energy is born. The question is: are we willing to rest in the vastness and relate to the intensity of what arises?

In today’s episode, Reggie discusses the ways we hold our lives hostage through judgment, self-criticism, and perfectionism. Maitri, he says, employs the inherent power of loving-kindness to naturally shift self-aggressive tendencies. It is a practice that helps us open to the unwanted guests knocking at the door.
