The profound journey of compassion
Summary
This is a really important story that recently, we have forgotten because l think that people are centered on the world or anything.
The speaker tells us that compassion should be centered on oneself. It’s not that we shouldn’t be centered on ourselves, but compassion. Actually, we don’t have true compassion first. Thus the speaker uses the words it’s a profound journey. We can feel sympathy and empathy naturally.
Empathy is to only understand another's feelings. Sympathy is also to understand what the other person is feeling even without you feel it.
Compassion needs your personal development and bigness. By mandate, you cannot make a person compassionate. Compassion is an emotional response and action. An empath is a window through which you reach out to people. It leads to compassion. If you have compassion, you can reach out to others naturally.
If you don’t have compassion, you have to fake and make it. It must lead to discovering compassion. We need to get the right teaching, it’ll also lead to discovering compassion. As humans, we have to have compassion. Compassion means the feelings that have prompted us to take action to relieve the suffering of another person.
