@@peacemakers111 For temporarily abandon defilments through samatha meditations you have to meditate quite a lot. If you practice Metta intensively and enter into absorpions, then it is possible that anger doesn't arise for some time, even days... but when you come back to your normal life, defilments can come back too. Of course Metta can aniway help to diminish anger-reactions and improve our life, even if not practised with jhanas. But to live completely without defilments thanks to Metta, it means you are practicing all day long! :)

Thank you 🙏

@@peacemakers111 I don't think she has a website or a list of her next retreats. She will guide a Metta retreat in our center in May. Don't know about other centers, sorry..

@@peacemakers111 In the school of Sayadaw U Indaka, (one teacher of Ayya Viranyani), during an intensive Vipassana retreat, Metta is used a few minutes at the beginning of every sitting. After that one switch to Vipassana. It helps for giving an open and accepting attitude and softeness towards the experience, and this can help in the developing of insights and overcoming hindrances. During daily life it is good to develop a Metta attitude during the day, since we have to deal with other persons and beings. Of course if something strong arise, like an emotion, or a desire to do or say something not wholesome, we can look at that with a Vipassana eye. It doesn't exist a stricht rule, you have to find when it can be more usefull metta prospective, and when the Vipassana one..

Thank you very much 🙏🏻Hope that I have the opportunity soon to do a Retreat at your Center.
