Compassion is necessary for your long term survival

Why?
If you are not compassionate to yourselves you cannot have integrity with yourselves. If you cannot have both compassion and integrity with yourselves you will tend to self destruct either directly or indirectly.

If you are not compassionate to others they will tend to harm or injure you in various ways or even kill you. So, here again your compassion of others may very well save your life one day or save you from a maiming injury.

However, it is also compassionate to remove yourselves from others who are violent and harmful whenever you can and survive it. In this you are being compassionate to yourselves by saving your own life and being compassionate to those harming you so they won't have even more karma against them from the harm they cause to you.

Because most people reading this have very good karma and to harm any of them including myself might be 100 to 1000 times worse than harming the average person karma wise.

The more good someone is able to do in any lifetime the more bad karma comes from harming that person or killing that  person.

So, once again, Compassion is necessary to learn even to make it to 20 or 30 years of age anywhere on earth.

However, we are NOT talking about idiot compassion that often gets people killed.

You must be intelligent about your compassionate acts towards yourselves and others.

It must be wise right mindful compassion that is as efficient as you can make it to be beneficial to yourselves and all mankind and the whole universe in the past, present and future.

However, we all have to start somewhere.
