Daya or compassion is not mere display of kindness or sympathy to someone in distress. It calls for complete identification with the suffering experienced by another and relieving that suffering as a means of relieving the agony experienced by oneself...When any service or help is rendered to anyone, this is the spirit in which it should be done. You must feel you are helping yourself when you are helping another. - Divine Discourse, May 3, 1986. |
