Meditation and Compassion (a zen story)

[Guest guest]

Wow, thank you, Danny! Especially for Shivaratri it's extraordinary. I

enjoyed the most this part:

 

'Then I looked at your face. You were filled with bliss and your eyes

became buddhalike. You looked at the monk, and you felt and you

thought, " It is better to sacrifice myself than this monk. This monk

is more valuable than me. "

This is compassion -- when the other becomes more valuable than you.

This is love -- when you can sacrifice yourself for the other. When

you become the means and the other becomes the end, this is love. When

you are the end and the other is used as a means, this is lust. Lust

is always cunning and love is always compassionate.'

 

I was seeking this definition.

 

Regards and ...nice meditation and compassion experiences to share with

us!
