Loving-kindness is a beautiful attitude—it makes everyone happy, including oneself. But it’s hard to feel sometimes, especially for people who have hurt us. Buddhism has many wonderful ideas that can help us overcome hindrances to loving-kindness so it can be more a part of our lives.

Originally from California, Venerable Sangye Khadro (Kathleen McDonald) was ordained as a Buddhist nun in Kopan Monastery, Nepal, in 1974. She has studied Buddhism with various teachers such as Lama Zopa Rinpoche, Lama Thubten Yeshe, and His Holiness the Dalai Lama.

At the request of her teachers, Ven Sangye Khadro began teaching in 1979, while living in England, and since then has taught in many countries around the world. She was a resident teacher at Amitabha Buddhist Centre, in Singapore, for 11 years.
