Isaac the Syrian, a 7th-century Christian mystic taught that when the heart becomes truly compassionate, it cannot bear to see any creature suffer.
It is a heart burning with love for all creation — for humans, animals, birds, and even demons. Yes, you pray even for your enemies and those who do harm.
Try and work with a softer heart today.
The closer you are to God, the greater the compassion.
Compassion can break the mechanics of Hell
Kuan Yin is the Bodhisattva of Compassion. One legend tells of her life that as Princess Miao Shan, when she refused to marry, her father, the King, ordered her execution.
When the executioner struck her with a sword, the blade shattered into a thousand pieces. When he tried to use a spear, it dissolved into dust.
Finally, realizing she was protected by a mystical force of non-violence, the King had her smothered.
However, her soul descended into the underworld. Upon seeing the suffering of the souls there, she was moved to such immense compassion that she began to pray.
Her presence turned the dark, fiery chambers of the underworld into a blooming garden of lotuses.
The King of the Underworld, realizing that her compassion was literally "breaking" the mechanics of hell, had no choice but to send her back to the world of the living so order could be restored.
When true compassion enters, even darkness loses its power!
