“Everything these beings do, they do for only one reason – for our sake. These great beings have no personal agenda. They have been there and done that.” – Krishna Das 

The Practice of Compassion (22:50)

Krishna Das reflects on the practice of compassion that we are all capable of. Practices that lead toward becoming selfless beings whose only interest, like Maharaj-ji and countless others, is for the liberation of all beings.

“These beings’ only reason for existing is compassion. They know that we are all one, and that we do not know that – so we suffer. They are here to show us what is possible and to help us find a way to take a step in the right direction.”  -Krishna Das
