Premanand Maharaj Ji
What does real compassion look like when I have to cause someone pain to help them, like a doctor?
Compassion that stays steady
Compassion should lie in wanting the other person's disease and suffering to end, so you stay steady and do what is needed. If you weep along with someone who is screaming, you cannot stitch or heal.
Compassion should lie in how this person's disease can be cured and their suffering ended; your hands should not tremble during the operation.
