Re: About Compassion
My Dear Omjaroo,
Your definition of compassion seems very good but not complete! Because
if we only care for suffering of others , this is a part of compassion
but not fully. Because suffering is also a relative image. Because we
always avaluate all the stuations according to the same feelings of
ours. That is a sufferer is a sufferer according to our understanding
and according to our norms..So suffering can not be a testing meter
for compassion.All the mothers no matter if their children suffers or
not care about their kits.. This is the compassion in its real
meaning..
If compassion is care without condition then this is it. That is
compassion is nor depend on suffering..CHINES people for dalai lama is
not suffering,they act as an enemy toward TIBETAN BUDDHISTS, but dalai
lama has a resoect for these CHINESE,and he says they are our GURUS..
With compassion,
Puma
