Benefits of Metta Meditation
When you want to practice the kammathan and enter samadhi, you should pae metta beforehand.
Because the practice of meditation is a virtuous merit, devas with wrong view (micchā diṭṭhi) may obstruct and give you problems.
When we extend loving-kindness to all beings, we generate friendly and warm ties with them.
We will obtain protection and support, and it is useful for our practice and meditation.
The benefits of metta (loving-kindness) are boundless. Even the Buddha Sasana was only able to arise and establish itself because of metta.
The fact that all of us [all kinds of people from all walks of life] encounter the Buddha Sasana is because of our good kamma and deeds in our previous life.
And any person who will continue to cultivate affinities with Buddhism in their future life, it is because of the establishment of our faith in the Buddha, Dhamma and Sangha in this current life.
