The Seven Points of Mind Training
This website contains a database of commentaries on the Seven Points of Mind Training. The core practice involves taking on others' sorrow and pain and sending them your joy; not as a masochistic practice but with the aim of getting away from the self-centeredness and self-seeking that cause us so much pain. These practices were brought to Tibet in the eleventh century by the Indian Buddhist teacher Atisha.
