Love and Compassion

• Are they same or different?• It is the love one feels for one's parents, one's brother,

one's sister, one's wife and children. Compassion is the love one feels for all beings of the world.

• Through compassion one serves all beings. • But Why should we?• God loves and shows compassion to us.• One can give without love, but one can not love without

giving.• Love your enemies? Who said? Is it Possible?
