Practice Compassion For Everlasting Happiness

Compassion is a profound human emotion, a feeling of deep sympathy and sorrow for another who is stricken by misfortune, empathy is something we all should practice regularly on daily basis. According to a new study on cultivating compassion that just by a small act of compassion not only brings you the inner power to change things better but also generates a great sense of inner peace.

I am proud to share with you that I was a Boy Scout at my school. Scouts were designed to build character, physical fitness, practical skills and services. Boy scouts learns and strive to live by the Scout Law. A scout is trustworthy, loyal, helpful, friendly, courteous, kind, obedient, cheerful, thrifty, brave, clean, and reverent. Compassion, cooperation, courage, honesty, positive attitudes are the main core values that we practiced. Practicing compassion in our daily life is not something we do for others, we do it for our own happiness. Dalai Lama said, “If you want to be happy, practice compassion and if you want others to be happy, practice compassion” Empathy can not improve the world, it’s only when we cultivate it within us and bring it into action that can become a force for a change.

Some scientific studies suggest that there are physical benefits to practicing compassion. People who practice it produce 100 percent more DHEA, The main benefit is that it helps you to be happier and thus make others happier. Compassionate people are also more positive. That’s why we all should practice compassion every day of our life.

The practice of compassion increases our capacity to care. It reinforces charity, and empathy. It is very good exercise for our heart muscle. Compassion allows physical body to heal from stress and tension, gives inner power and peace to change things better. My family members’ glad that I look after them, my friends are glad to know that I am really listening to them, my co-workers glad to know that I am working with collaboration in mind. This gives me a genuine feeling of happiness.

I believe practicing compassion is something that will bring us true everlasting happiness.

Let’s practice compassion until it becomes one of our habits
