The Four Immeasurables are: 1. Metta Unconditional love, as expressed in the bodhisattva ideal Loka Samastah Sukhino Bhavantu (May all beings be well and happy). 2. Karuna Compassion: May all beings be free from suffering. 3. Mudita Sympathetic or empathic joy. Typically enough, there is no English or Dutch word for this quality to rejoice because of someone’s fortune. The Germans have ‘Mitfreude’. There are several for the opposite: jealousy, envy. 4. Upekkha Equanimity. The capacity to accept whatever comes, to accept loss and gain, sorrow and happiness all equally. Working with these four qualities in meditation and in daily life will show that they are inter- linked and mutually can strengthen and deepen each other. For instance, unconditional love can be practices through conditional love by trying to make the ‘conditions’ smaller and smaller. This will inevitably raise your equanimity and also the two other qualities: they are four shades of the same universal color, the color of the divine.
