The comPASSION of the Buddha is unrivaled. We are not talking about short term achievements where one work to go a heavenly plane and become a servant and then out they go again after committing some serious mistakes. The compassion of the Buddha penetrates all the six realms. He doesn’t just work for the sake of one realm or solely for humans only. The Buddha’s doctrine touches even the smallest living being like an ant that no sentient beings with their inflated human ego would pay attention to. How many of us humans would work relentlessly to find a solution to the root of our problem called suffering. Most people are simply here to enjoy their lives hopefully, make some or alot of mistakes, build their happiness on the suffering of others by killing and think that they are forgiven without doing much and maybe retire in heaven for eternity. Idealistic I will say especially when one even adopt a buffet style of spirituality. I only believe in what I want to believe. Those that are pleasing to my ears I will use them and practise them. Those that are not. I will simply glance or gloss through. If the entry to heaven means absolute conformity to the word. I really wonder how many will make it there since they do not take every word SERIOUSLY. This is where the compassion of the Buddha comes in for the fallen and the forgotten who are burning in hell becos some Atas almighty above dun even give a damn about and has forsaken them but the Buddha does not. His teachings continue to teleport sentient beings in the six realms to his shores of liberation. Even ghosts trapped in haunted houses for centuries can benefit from the teachings he left behind. He spent every new life perfecting the qualities essential to becoming a Buddha. He died many lives to achieve this cause to our solution. Â The Buddha’s compassion is unrivaled becos he believes every life can become a Buddha. Every life must be given a second chance or many chances to reach there. Only one who works tirelessly for sentient being and upkeep the precept of not killing is worthy of veneration. There are always better ways to solve a problem without killing or burning sentient beings unless one is really at one’s wits. A deer walks to a river to take a sip of water. Before it knows, a crocodile drags it into the water for lunch. Animals live their lives in fear every minute. Even fulfilling their basic needs would be their last day on earth. A snake devour its own kind swallowing another snake live into itself. An american tarantula sinks its teeth into a rodent as its venom kills the prey and its secretion digest the meat into fluid for consumption. If one has no idea what suffering is and the extent of it, think of the life of an animal. Extend that suffering to hell and even hungry ghosts. How can anyone with a heart and mind not be moved by compassion to work tirelessly for a solution to suffering for the ultimate benefit of all sentient beings. The Buddha did it the hard way so that we can have the easy way so let’s not take that for granted and may we guard his teachings so that those who fall into the cracks may also benefit for aeons of life. Â Â
I look to the day when technology can transfer the consciousness of animals and equip them with the same mechanism or organic devices that humans have. If animals are as complete as we are with all the faculties of humans, what then will they say? If animals can talk like humans, do we help them or help them to our stomachs?
About this: ‘the fallen and the forgotten who are burning in hell becos some Atas almighty above dun even give a damn about and has forsaken them’, it reminds me of this:
I cannot be angry at God,
in whom I do not believe.

(The Buddha taught that there is no almighty G in the first place… which means there is no need to be angry at someone who is not there)
