The Spirit of Spring and Awakening of Kundalini (Translation of a discourse of Revered Pandit Shriram Sharma Acharya)

Compassion is that which makes one cry with others’ sorrow, which drives one to live for others’ welfare.

Sagacity is that which guides one to live a dignified life of a noble human being, who engages his talents constructively in righteous pursuits.

Look for example, at Kagaba – who is honored as the "Gandhi of Japan".

He dedicated all his life in the service of the downtrodden, the helpless, and the patients of leprosy and other dreaded diseases, who are practically abandoned by their families.

His karuna (compassion and generosity with saintly love) for them inspired his wife also to join in his altruistic mission. Both of them used to be engaged in this noble mission, round the clock, without expectation of even gratitude.

What enabled this superhuman endeavor?

It was the power of karuna, which had sprung up in their hearts.

This is what I call the expression of Kundalini, which produces a zeal, a pain, a thrust, and pulls the individual consciousness out of the smog of all infirmities and selfish attachments.
