Shuddhadhara presents a selection of images displayed at the recent World Press Photo Exhibition 2026 in London, from photojournalists working around the world over the last year…
“One of the world’s leading showcases of photojournalism and documentary photography, World Press Photo London presents the award-winning images and stories that have captured some of the most significant events, issues and experiences shaping our world today… to help ensure that important global stories are seen, understood and remembered.”
These are images of human suffering, conflict, injustice, war and the climate crisis, but also ones that are stunningly beautiful, hope-filled and inspiring.
Shuddhadhara says that the exhibition and the images made him reconsider (and developed) his practice of the Metta Bhavana meditation, especially the fifth stage, where we expand our cultivation of loving kindness to all living beings, everywhere, beyond our day-to-day life experience… and with equanimity (Upekkha).

The aim of these sessions is to strengthen our hearts and nourish qualities that can help transform our world. Each evening explores different ways in which to act, or simply live, in this world with compassion, wisdom and reflection.
