A Live Stream Presentation

Compassion seems to constitute the center of spiritual traditions around the world. If properly understood, it holds the power to bring all world religions together. For instance: St. Thomas Aquinas said, "Compassion is the fire that Jesus came to set on the earth." The Dalai Lama said, "We can do away with all religion but we can't do away with compassion. Compassion is my religion." Jesus said, "Be you compassionate as your Father in heaven is compassionate." In the Jewish tradition, compassion is the secret name for God. Meister Eckhart said, "Compassion means justice" and, "Compassion is where peace and justice kiss." During this event, we explore compassion's many dimensions, including how today's physics gives us a basis for true compassion.
