Union of Compassion and Wisdom
| April 21, 2014
The essence of Buddha’s teaching is the
union of compassion and wisdom, the view of interdependence and
emptiness. An altruistic attitude is altruistic. It is not confused in
itself. But without wisdom, we can act with obscured compassion or
stupid compassion.
—Matthieu Ricard, “Karma Crossroads”
