A lot of very senior teachers will talk about mindfulness and metta (or loving kindness) as being the same thing - mindfulness and compassion as being the same thing.

"This is not an adjunct practice [to mindfulness]. This is not an alternative practice. This is a core practice. When we talk about mindful breathing and body scans and mindfulness in general, this sense of care is actually inherent."

"As a single footstep will not make a path on the earth, so a single thought will not make a pathway in the mind. To make a deep physical path, we walk again and again. To make a deep mental path, we must think over and over the kind of thoughts we wish to dominate our lives."

- Henry David Thoreau
