Guest guest Posted July 9, 2002 Report Share Posted July 9, 2002 The word "saandra" has many meanings, such as, - solid, compact, intense, - viscid, unctuos - soft, tender, smooth Hence, this name reflects the intensity and nature of HER compassion. SHE is intense in HER compassion. SHE is dripping with compassion. SHE soft and tender because of HER intense compassion. A child suffering from fever may cry for ice-cream, but its mother may deny it. To the child it may look like a punishment, but that act of Mother (bearing the child's cries which hurts her more than it does the child) is an act of compassion. That child may cry more when the mother tries to give medicine, but the mother has to give it. All HER acts arise out of compassion, but we may not realize it due to our ignorance.
