Because the Buddha’s life and heart exist without regard to time and space, his capacity for compassion and wisdom are equally as endless. We humans often have small hearts and lives and perhaps cannot imagine ever having as great a capacity for compassion and wisdom as the Buddha. We may never be able to conceive of living without hate, jealousy or anger. Through our connection with the Buddha, however, we can develop such a capacity for compassion and wisdom as well as connection with all living beings.
