"Compassion makes us human" - Vikash

"Out of compassion I destroy the darkness of their ignorance. From within them I light the lamp of wisdom and dispel all darkness from their lives." - Bhagavad Gita

"The dew of compassion is a tear." - Lord Byron

"I feel the capacity to care is the thing which gives life its deepest significance." - Pablo Casals

"The individual is capable of both great compassion and great indifference. He has it within his means to nourish the former and outgrow the latter." - Norman Cousins


Reading these great thoughts instilled this very thought in mind. This made me ponder about "what it takes to be human?". Answer was candidly simple - "Compassion".

WHY SHOULD Krishna create ignorance and darkness first and then go on lighting lamps? The priests say it is maya (illusion)! Then why play with innocent living creatures?
