The Ins & Outs of Compassion

Compassion is deeply rooted in feeling, but to be realized, it must also be grounded in skill.  Using an excerpt from a talk by Christina Feldman, Darryl guided our reflections this week on Karuna, the second Brahma Vihara, including a glance at Avalokiteshvara, the imaginative many-armed icon of complete compassion, whose multiple eyes guide various hands hold different tools, resourcefully ready to relieve each particular suffering  encountered.
