The transformation of human consciousness towards personal freedom, interpersonal compassion and social wholeness is at the heart of the Metta Foundation’s vision. Metta offers nonsectarian teachings, publications, and service programs, based upon original Buddhist principles and trainings, that integrate new approaches to human development, learning modalities, and technology. Wisdom and compassion are nurtured by a wide path that includes individual and interpersonal practices, undertaken on retreat and in everyday life. The Metta Foundation has fostered the new but traditionally grounded practices of Insight Dialogue and Dharma Contemplation, and offers them through retreats, practice groups, and the Web. Metta’s programs are intended to convey wisdom in new and compelling forms that augment traditional approaches. Metta.org provides opportunities to engage in online meditation and contemplation with members of a worldwide practice community. Visitors to the online community will also find information on current programs and retreats. Information and links to the international Insight Dialogue practice community will be available in the future through www.insightdialogue.org
