PUT YOURSELF IN OTHERS’ SHOES AND CULTIVATE A SENSE OF EMPATHY
Master Jun Hong Lu: Buddhism often says that understanding others leads to compassion, human beings are born with innate good nature and karma will take its course. In this human realm, everyone is fighting a battle under various circumstances. When we understand others, we will let things go. In the Dharma it was stated, “if you know your past self, you will definitely forgive who you are now”. Consequently, we have to understand the shifts and charges of human life and that all worldly phenomena are impermanent. The more understanding we are, the more compassion there is within us; the more empathetic we are, the more smooth-sailing our journey will be in this world.
