I have personal problems with the metta practice. I would say may I/uyou be happy and i woulgI would go in this wish fulfilment mode. Imagining myself and others happy would create a jinni in the bottle attitude. It would become this deluded practice.
- How can iI wish people to be happy when iI know this wish wont come true?
- How can iI wish people to be happy whithout going into this prayer mode?
Can iI use words like "i"I hope uyou be happy"? Or maybe uI find joy"
Is metta hoping? Or attitude of maybes?
