Compassion
Buddha has defined compassion as "love plus meditation". When your love is not just a desire for the other, when your love is not only a need, when your love is a sharing, when your love is not that of a beggar but an emperor, when your love is not asking for something in return but is ready only to give--to give for the sheer joy of giving--then add meditation to it and the pure fragrance is released. That is compassion; compassion is the highest phenomenon.
--Zen Tarot, Osho
