Compassion (karunā)
is the Great Good Helper!
Compassionate pity
(karunā) is feeling the pain
of other beings, either partially, or completely;
Possible renderings:
1:
Pity not from above: “I am
better”, but as if being in the other being's shoes...
2:
Compassion is OK, but that is
difficult to reach up to emotionally for many beings...
3:
Fellow feeling, sympathy, empathy, understanding are all OK, but somewhat missing
these essential core points:
A: It is a genuine goodwill that cannot endure
all other being's suffering and distress!
B: It is a deep desire to make
all others feel free, glad, content, happy and peaceful!
C: It is extended to and pervaded over many
if not all universal beings simultaneously...
The
proximate cause of
Karunā = pity is noticing other
being's
helplessness...
The
immediate effect
of Karunā = pity is
evaporation of all
evil cruelty!
