Can Compassion Hurt Our Health?

Many people shy away from diving into the ocean of compassion because they are afraid to get hurt if they open their hearts too deeply to others. And, yes, sometimes the first thing that can happen when we open our hearts is that we’re hurt. Suddenly, as we open our hearts and eyes to the world, we see all of the things in the world that are craving our help and attention. It’s enough to make us want to shut-down.

But, in this serene video from Divine Satsang, Sadhviji shares with us why it’s so very worth it and so deeply important to open our hearts – regardless of the consequences.
