Loving-Kindness in Plain English: The Practice of Metta is a short practical Buddhist guide by Bhante Henepola Gunaratana, the author best known for Mindfulness in Plain English. Written in the same accessible style, the book introduces metta, or loving-kindness, as a trainable mental attitude rather than a vague sentiment. Its purpose is to show how this practice can reduce anger, increase emotional steadiness, and improve relationships through direct meditation training and everyday application. The book draws on the Buddha’s teachings as presented in the suttas, but it does so in conversational language that avoids technical density. Instead of treating loving-kindness as an abstract ideal, it presents it as a concrete discipline that can be cultivated step by step. The result is a compact manual for readers who want a clear entry point into Buddhist practice, especially those interested in compassion, inner peace, and a more workable response to conflict.
