KINDNESS AND COMPASSION
Uvasama samvego vi a, nivveo taha ya hoi | Aņukampā atthikkaṁ ca ee, sammatte lakkhaṇā pañca ||
- Pravacnasāroddhāra, dvāra 149, verse 940. That is - Subsidence (upaśama), Desire for spiritual emancipation (samvega), Detachment (nirveda), Compassion (anukampā) and Spiritual belief (āstikya) are the five indicators of right vision. Tisidam bubhukkhidam vā duhidam datthūna,
jo du duhidamano
Padivajjadi tam kivayā,
tassesa hodi anukampā ||
- Pañcāstikāya, That is - on seeing the thirsty, the hungry or the miserable if one is moved to act to mitigate their misery, that is one's quality of compassion.
Jīve aņukampae aṇubbhade vigayasoge carittamohanijjam kammaṁ khaveil
- Uttarādhyayana sūtra, 29.29.
That is - One who is compassionate, and without pride and sorrow, destroys the conduct-deluding karma.
