A description of the experience
Tirrukural, the - Book 2 from Compassion
571. It is compassion, the most gracious of virtues,
Which moves the world.
572. Compassion is human; lacking it
Men are a burden on earth.
573. What use is a raga that cannot be sung?
Or eyes without sympathy?
574. What use are eyes that look like eyes
But lack boundless sympathy?
575. The jewel of the eye is sympathy; without it
Eyes are but sores.
