What is compassion? Part of living the good life, our California Psychics say, is to live with compassion. It's what connects us to others as we try to understand their point of view, notice their suffering and become sensitive to what they truly need in a moment of difficulty. To live a truly compassionate life, our intuitives tell us, we must give ourselves the same gift of loving kindness.
Our psychics report that true love and compassion go hand in hand. "Compassion is inseparable from love," Harris ext. 9070 philosophizes. "Often spirit guides say that one of the main goals of being human is to develop compassion and unconditional love."
"Compassion is the ability to walk in another's shoes. It is not empathy or sympathy, but truly the capacity to see others and their circumstances for what they are," Debra ext. 9596 explains. "It is the understanding that if we look at another with a spiritual eye, we can embrace the best path for them to follow without interference or lecture. We must have the strength to allow our loved ones go through whatever is best for them," the psychic emphasizes.
Compassion clearly is not attempting to "fix" someone, or taking their well-being on as a project, smothering them with sympathy or kindnesses or attempting to buy their happiness. Intrinsic in compassion is the understanding that we may feel the need to alleviate another's suffering, but we cannot do it for them. Instead, the best we may be able to do at times may be to just listen or be there with them - even if it's just as an ear at the other end of their phone call.
"Compassion for most is an acquired trait," believes Jonathan ext. 9601. "It often comes with age and life experience, but some never do learn the lessons of compassion that come through life's interactions."
When it comes to seeing signs of compassion in a person, astrology and numerology can be insightful Shelley ext. 9105 reveals. She gets a kick out of the vividly clear similarities she finds in people who share numerological and birth sign likenesses. For instance, Number Three's are nurturing and considerate, Water signs are more sympathetic…
The key to teaching compassion is to practice it yourself, our intuitive team affirms. Jonathan says that he strives to show the trait in his readings as example and encouragement to others to be as open, loving and kind as possible. "I try to show callers how to understand the point of view and the feelings of those they are questioning me about."
Be merciful with yourself as well, Paisley ext. 9661 advises. "I've found that many of my callers are way too hard on themselves, usually due to thinking too much. To turn this around, I direct them to get out of their heads and into their bodies - their hearts and solar plexus, or third and fourth chakras. When they do this and then ask themselves the same questions they have mentally been stewing over, their answers are very different, kinder and much more compassionate, toward themselves - and others as well."
The wonderful thing about compassion, our psychics reveal, is that people pick up on it easily and gratefully. "I actually speak to callers about these very things every day," Debra reports. "And what's wonderful about our callers is that they get it... and then go on to readjust their way of being in the world." And doesn't that one simple act of compassion make the world a better place? Try it!
