TRADITIONAL THAI MASSAGE

The giver uses Thai massage to practice loving kindness toward the receiver. No matter what feelings of disgust or attraction arise in the masseur, he must let go of them and continue to focus on the well-being of the receiver. If you felt disgust toward someone, would you be able to give him or her a massage?

If I felt disgust toward someone, I would be able to give him or her a massage, but it wouldn’t be easy. I would have to let go of my feelings of disgust, over and over again.

In this way, the masseur strengthens his ability to generate loving kindness for others, regardless of whether he likes them or not. If you had the ability to generate loving kindness toward others, would you use it frequently?

Yes, I would. If I had the ability to generate loving kindness toward others, I would use it everyday, in all of my interactions. I would especially use it with people I did not like. Then I would feel better and I would be much kinder toward others.

Likewise, his ability to maintain a meditative state strengthens his powers of awareness. If you had strong powers of awareness, how would it change your life?

If I had strong powers of awareness, I would understand myself and others much better. And if I understood myself and others better, I could make wiser decisions and take more skillful actions.

After years of practice, the masseur naturally carries over these states of mind into his interaction with other people in his daily life. The result is that he cultivates relationships with others that contain these qualities of awareness and kindness. If you could cultivate a more loving and kind relationship with someone, who would it be?

If I could cultivate a more loving and kind relationship with someone, it would be with one of my co-workers who I don’t like very much. I see that person frequently, so if I could be more loving and kind toward him, I would actually feel better myself. Then we would both benefit from the loving kindness.

In this way, not only does the masseur and all of his receivers benefit, but the entire community benefits. It’s a win-win situation for everyone. If you carried over the qualities of awareness and loving kindness into your interactions with people, how would it benefit the community?
