Glossary of Buddhism |
Muditā (Pāli and Sanskrit: मुदिता) is a dharmic concept of joy, particularly an especially sympathetic or vicarious joy—the pleasure that comes from delighting in other people's well-being.[1]
The traditional paradigmatic example of this mind-state is the attitude of a parent observing a growing child's accomplishments and successes.[2]
