Compassion is open, free, and limitless.

Indescribable and utterly beyond intellectual comprehension, it responds to any situation spontaneously and without calculation, yet in a way that enlightens and transform.

Indeed, compassion may be compared to sunlight, since it awakens and brings joy to beings; compassion is also like a rainbow, its ineffable beauty lifting the hearts of all who see it.
