Illusion, Ignorance

Let’s hear what a tear says


Illusion, Ignorance,
We buy and we pay. 1  

We cry in our laughing, 
We die every day. (1)  

The knowledge, the freedom, 
Isn’t it just to say? (1)  

We play with the devil, 
With devils we hay. (1)  

We bawl and we torture, 
So selfish we pray. (1) 

We ruined all the water, 
The air and the clay. (1)  

We enrich the rival’s, 
Hunt allies to fray.  (1)  

We betrayed the angels, 
We cut them, we slay.  (1)  

We exit the heaven, 
In hell so we stay. (1)  

Forget such a living, 
Let’s turn back, let’s sway. 2  

Let’s deepen the wisdom,
Make dhamma the way. (2)  

True freedom we gather, 
Ignorance we lay. (2)  

Come let’s see our true face, 
Stand under true ray. (2)

That skill got skipped entirely. And that's unfortunate, because to be compassionate is one of the most important things a human must learn. How do you become  more compassionate? You don't wait for it to magically appear. You trigger it. The Core Idea Here's what I've found works: You deliberately put yourself in someone else's shoes. Not in a vague "I feel for them" ...
