Description
The Buddha offered samatha and metta as the two areas to be cultivated to prepare the mind for frameworks of contemplation. Metta brings the attitude of kindness, a befriending base, to meditation. Samatha develops the capacity of mind to sustain attentiveness, collectedness, a unification of body, mind and present moment; and in that collectedness sustain attention on any chosen object. (Note: Christina first answers a few questions; the talk begins about six minutes into the recording.)
