Compassion allows us to bear witness to suffering, whether it is in ourselves or others, without fear; it allows us to name injustice without hesitation, to act strongly, with all the skill at our disposal.

Loving-kindness and compassion are the basis for wise, powerful, sometimes gentle, and sometimes fierce actions that can really make a difference - in our own lives and those of others.

In order to do anything about the suffering of the world we must have the strength to face it without turning away.

Mindfulness needs to not be judgmental to really be mindfulness, which means it needs a basis of loving kindness.

Compassion grows in us when we know how the energy of love is available all around us.

Once someone appears to us primarily as an object, kindness has no place to root.

Meditation is the ultimate mobile device; you can use it anywhere, anytime, unobtrusively.
