Compassion is a verb … (08/24/14)
Compassion, like all forms of real Wisdom, is not something to be read about & intellectually comprehended … Compassion, like all forms of real Wisdom, is something to be enacted & actively experienced … Compassion, like all forms of real Wisdom, must blossom forth to Be … Compassion, like all forms of real Wisdom, is a verb.
“Compassion is the essence of Jesus’ teaching, and indeed of the teaching of all great spiritual figures … Yet compassion has been sentimentalized and severed from its relationship to justice-making and celebration.” ~ Matthew Fox
