When the failure of loving-kindness
Happiness, peace, health, strength and blessing continuum
But instead of the development of the feelings of mettā or the loving-kindness
When expectations, in return for the same, for happiness
Or expectation for pleasure, or happiness
The failure of loving-kindness and instead the orientation of the mind towards bhog bilas (self-indulgence)
Not a goal of holy life, and even a failure in ordinary happiness
And the outcomes of ill will, the outcomes of hatred
And such outcomes, none other than some opportunity
Opportunity for the suppression or cutting away of hatred, or ill will
Moreover, very common in the world, something like hatred,
Common, when the vicious cycle of identity view in the world
Where yearning and chase for the benefits of such a short time, as the span of identity, the span of life
Because identity, not beyond death, and happiness for such a small span, a pain
In such circumstances, when determination for the development of mettā
But unfavourable circumstances, setbacks of hatred, and difficult persistence
Then, none other than khanti (patience), of any use
Development of patience, with mindfulness of breathing or analysis of the dhātu
Or simply through the other 12 Vipassanā meditation practices.
