The first of two dharma talks given by Lisa Dale Miller, MFT, at the Marin Sangha on June 3 and 10, 2012 bridging the gap between personal love and the Buddha's profound teachings on boundless love. In these two talks we traversed the wild and diverse world of love— its ever-present approach and avoidance, needing and wanting, holding and letting go, gain and loss, opening and collapsing— eventually arriving at the point in which these dualistic qualities ultimately dissolve into love's true nature as boundlessness.
