    The sutta teaches the cultivation of loving-kindness (metta) towards all beings without distinction through wishing them safety, happiness, and peace. It recommends developing thoughts of goodwill for all beings whether seen or unseen, near or far, living or yet to come into existence, as well as for those one likes or dislikes. Following this practice of universal loving-kindness and wisdom will lead one to non-returning, meaning liberation from the cycle of rebirth.

    KARANIYA METTA SUTTA Karaniya mattha kusalena, Yan tam santam padam abhi-samecca; Sakko uju ca suhuju ca,

    Suvaco cassa mudu anatimani. Santussako ca subharo ca, Appakicco ca sallahukavutti; Santindriyo ca nipako ca, Appagabbho kulesu ananu giddho. Na ca khuddam samacare kinci, Yena vinnu pare upavadeyyum; Sukhino va khemino hontu, Sabbe satta bhavantu sukhitatta: Ye keci panabhut'atthi, Tasa va thavara va anavasesa; Digha va ye mahanta va, Majjima rassaka anukathula Dittha va ye ca adittha, Ye ca dure vasanti avidure; Bhuta va sambhavesi va, Sabbe satta bhavantu sukitatta. Na paro pararam nikubbetha, Natimannetha katthaci nam kinci; Byarosana patighasanna, Nannamannassa dukkhamiccheyya. Mata yatha niyam puttam Ayusa ekaputtamanurakkhe; Evampi sabbabhutesu Manasambhavaye aparimanam. Mettanca sabbalokasmim Mansambhavaye aparimanam; Uddham adho ca tiriyanca, Asambham averam asapattam. Titthancaram nisinno va, Sayano va yavatassa vigatamiddho; Etam satim adhittheyya, Brahmam etam viharam idha-mahu. Ditthinca anupagamma, Silava dassanena sampanno; Kamesu vineyya gedham, Na hi jatu gabbhaseyyam puna-reti ti.
