COMPASSION CANNOT CHOOSE ...

"suffering is suffering , whatever may have been the cause for it .
when there is suffering ,what caused it is not important . There is 
no such thing as one kind of suffering being great and another kind
of suffering being small. It is not right to think that if one suffers
from cancer you should give him love and if another suffers from 
HIV/AIDS you must not give him love .


If our humanity is functional, when someone is suffering , we 
spontaneously feel that we ought to do something about it . No
one has to teach this to us . But because we have come to wrong
conclusions about those suffering from HIV/AIDS, an environment
has been created in this society , to act against human nature ,
thereby destroying the basic humanity in us .


when the Tsunami happened , everyone was reaching out . I do not
understand  why people are not reaching out to the HIV situation in the same way and with the same vigor . why not ?


Clearly , compassion cannot choose ...."
