One of the methods for improving and extending our mind of love is to realise we are all connected to each other, we are not islands, isolated from each other. In this podcast Gen Menla explores the Buddhist teaching that all beings have been our mothers in previous lives and have shown us great kindness. When we develop this view we feel an incredible sense of connection and awaken our mind of affectionate love. He encourages us to adopt this view simply because it brings great happiness. An extract from a teaching given in KMC Texas based on the book Joyful Path of Good Fortune by Geshe Kelsang Gyatso
