What's more important: Compassion or Knowledge?
After spending years and years chasing knowledge, I've discovered that compassion/empathy/sympathy and the like are far more important than knowledge.

Quoting from "Revelations of an Elite Insider":

"What we believe in does not matter but it is about serving the Divine Law which was passed onto us."

I've pondered that statement for years and now I think I finally understand it. Knowledge is not nearly as important as your actions.

In my experience the knowledge created a universal compassion.

Re: What's more important: Compassion or Knowledge?
thinking without compassion is being a sociopath.

How can you have compassion for someone without finding a way mentally to put yourself in their shoes.

compassion is powerful kind of logic in itself.

I dont understand your question.

 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 992759


My question is based on the fact that I've found that for me, knowledge and compassion seem to be inversely correlated both for me and others. Therefore, gaining knowledge, in my experience, leads to less compassion. With that in mind, the question I asked should be clear. You may not agree with my views of course.

What we believe in does not matter. What matters is what I believe in. rofl

Very incompassionate and manipulative.

Back to your question... Knowledge is the result of experience and our wish to understand the world we are part of. So your question should be: Which is more important, experience and our interest in the world around us or compassion? The answer is obvious.

What if you had no knowledge at all but all empathy?

I think neither is more important than each other.

Knowledge is Power, the power of knowing what is possible.

Without knowledge you would not be conversing around the world.

Hot cold, happy sad, it is all knowledge.

I wonder why you had no empathy in the first place?

Obama's the Antichrist.

I know that Jade has great faith and belief.

The miracle happened that the same day as Obama's acceptance speech in Chicago the Illinois State Lottery drew 666.

Don't believe me, search Google with the words "Obama lottery 666 you have got to see this".

Spread it worldwide because it's the Apocalypse and we are those who believe that will be the only ones to be saved.

But that depends on us obeying the Bible and "Not looking back"...

In Buddhadharma & Bön, the two are inseparable; like two aspects of the same thing.

It’s quite nuanced though, i.e. see: Bodhicitta, Prajna, Upaya, and Jnana.

And also about five important Indriyas: Sraddha, Virya, Smrti, Samadhi, Prajna.

This.

But if I had to choose, I would choose compassion.

Better a dumber kind world living in harmony with the cosmos and each other than this mess we have now where the almighty $$$ and what's between people's legs drive them.

Re: What's more important: Compassion or Knowledge?
I'm pretty sure as with most things, they go hand in hand.

How do you get compassion? Knowledge of living in a world without compassion? In a compassionate world, its overlooked as second nature.

We live in an uncompassionate world and we compensate it due to our perceived need for it. The world was uncompassionate to me and i did not like it, so i will add compassion to myself so no one feel that (they way i felt) from me at a least.

Knowledge, understanding and communication seems like the simple keys of life to me. If compassion doesn't sprout from that, then you were never going to show compassion.
