Great quote from Zoketsu Norman Fischer in an essay called "Impossible Possibilities" from Turning Wheel: The Journal of the Buddhist Peace Fellowship (2001)
#buddha #dharma #buddhism #namuamidabustsu #normanfischer #turningwheel #peace #worldpeace
#TraininginCompassion: #NormanFischer is saying that #Empathy is feeling/knowing what the other is feeling. #Sympathy is actually dealing with the other and their pain. This resonates because psychopaths have empathy and enjoy the pain they cause. They miss the sympathy gene.
please don’t sit this one out…
