Compassion — Christina Feldman

In Buddhist iconography, compassion is embodied in
the bodhisattva Kuan Yin, who is said to manifest wherever
beings need help. Engendering such compassion is not only
good for others, it is also good for us.
By putting others first, we loosen the bonds of our self-fixation,
and in doing so, inch closer to our own liberation.[/font][/font]
