TSUNAMI DISASTER
Today, is a disastrous day for Southern India and other waterfront Asian countries. A day of heart full of pain for me and for many others.
"Compassion is not something one person has for another, but rather something that arises when one begins to see all others as ones own self. As real compassion develops within, the sense of 'other' begins to lessen. When we cut our own finger, the first impulse we have is to rush to heal it, because we see the finger as belonging to us, as part of ourselves. Likewise, when we see others suffering, our first impulse should be to rush to comfort and help them, seeing them as belonging to us, as part of ourselves".
