Huangbo Xiyun: Compassion really means not conceiving of sentient beings to be delivered.

As one moves through time, not dropping existentialist caltrops is an act of compassion.

But, using ones subjectively earned knowledge of areas of individual vulnerabilities to reveal them to others to the purpose of eliminating there weakness to them, is also an act of compassion.

Saying things simply is an act of compassion.

Wording thing in a perplexing way, almost seeming to be deliberately without a point, but then suddenly swinging back to it: the point, can also be seen as a compassionate act, to those that have difficulty accepting simple seeming answers.


My best bs statement ever. Subjectively.


Compassion starts at home. Seigando knows what happens next.
