The power of Tonglen
meditaid.net connects people all over the world to practice Tonglen meditation, provides insights about this practice and bundles the meditative energy for maximum impact.
This website was born on January 6th 2026.
Knowing that there’s a Fourth King in each and every one of us.
The power of many:
Daily practice
The main purpose of this platform is to provide a frame for everybody who would like to make an impact with their Tonglen practice.
Because if many people perform the same meditation at the same time, the transformational power multiplies.
That’s why I chose the name “meditaid.net” – meditation that really helps, growing a net that covers the entire world – hopefully with many knots!
So here’s the frame
– In your timezone, try to practice at 08:00 am and/or at 08:00 pm.
– If any other time works better for you, try to start your practice at any full hour.
– Meditate once or twice or several times a day.
– Inhale any form of pain, despair or suffering you’re aware of. Your own, a friend’s, a family member’s… And as this is about all sentient beings: don’t forget about animals. Then exhale well-being, happiness, hope…
– Include the monthly focus topic as often as possible.
– One minute already counts. Five are very valuable. Fifteen are amazing.
– Try to find a “quiet” place. Closing your eyes while waiting for the bus is all that it takes to start…
– If you feel like you need some healing yourself first – follow this feeling and start with performing the Tonglen for yourself. If taking care of yourself is all you’re able to do at that moment – that’s a big deal already. Don’t feel guilty that there was no more energy for others. Actually never feel guilty. Ever.
– It’s that easy. Now start.
Monthly focus
All the time, all over the world, there is unlimited suffering.
But every now and then, there’s a tragedy that stands out.
Alternatively, the monthly focus can be inspired by special dates
or events involving people close to me.
Please include this in your Tonglen practice. Thank you.
Also feel invited to reach out if you’d like to submit an idea for a
monthly focus.
November 2026: Spain Train Crash
On October 28th, 2026, 69 people were killed and almost 200 injured when two trains crashed south of the Spanish capital Madrid. It is one of the worst rail disasters in Europe’s modern history, and already the second fatal collision in 2026 in Spain. In January a high-speed train derailed in southern Spain, claiming the lives of 46 people. Authorities say that the recent crash was caused by both computer system failure and apparent human error.
We inhale all the suffering of the victims, deceased, wounded, traumatized, left behind. And those who feel guilty for what happened. We inhale sadness, weakness, injuries, pain, despair.
We exhale healing, confidence, forgiveness and hope.
Combine your heart energy with the global Tonglen community
Apart from the daily practice and monthly focus topics, additional global Tonglen meditations will be announced here.
Everybody will perform the same energy transformation on the same topic at the same time.
What an incredible healing power!
