Embracing compassion allows us to connect with others on a deeper level from "summary" of Buddhism for Beginners by Thubten Chodron

When we cultivate compassion in our hearts, we open ourselves up to a deeper connection with others. Compassion is the wish for others to be free from suffering and its causes. It is a powerful force that allows us to see beyond ourselves and truly understand the experiences of those around us. By embracing compassion, we are able to empathize with others on a profound level, recognizing their struggles and offering support without judgment. When we approach others with compassion, we create a space for genuine connection to take place. Instead of focusing solely on our own needs and desires, we prioritize the well-being of those around us. This shift in perspective fosters a sense of unity and understanding, strengthening our relationships and deepening our bonds with others. Compassion also enables us to respond to others with kindness and generosity. When we act from a place of compassion, our words and actions are infused with warmth and empathy. This creates a positive energy that uplifts both ourselves and those we interact with, fostering a sense of trust and mutual respect.
  1. Embracing compassion allows us to break down the barriers that separate us from one another. When we approach others with an open heart and a genuine desire to alleviate their suffering, we create the conditions for meaningful connections to flourish. Through compassion, we can bridge the gap between ourselves and others, cultivating a sense of unity and interconnectedness that enriches our lives and the lives of those around us.
