“Compassion again is of what kind? It is the desire to save all beings from misery and from causes that lead to misery. The desire that I shall even save the beings who are burnt in the great fire of suffering from the three evils and have entered the prison of Saṃsāra is what is called Compassion. Or it is the desire to save all beings suffering from the three evils from the sea of Saṃsāra.
