Satsang

The compassion of a sage may take any form. Finding someone hurt he may bandage them, or seeing someone in need he may reach into his pocket and give some money. So the compassion arises and takes its own course, but the sage is never involved in that action as “his” action. The sense of personal doership has been erased forever. He just witnesses things happening not as “my” action or someone else’s action. If an action from some other body-mind organism hurts the sage, the hurt will be there. But knowing that no one does anything, Consciousness is all there is, the sage cannot hate anybody. Whom will he hate? All actions are God’s actions. Or if your wish to put it another way, all actions are the impersonal functioning of Consciousness. So “whom” will the sage hate? Consciousness? God?
