Oct 9 Compassionate Living Tip from Interfaith Paths to Peace
Read and embrace "How Can I Help" by spiritual master Ram Dass & Paul Gorman
http://www.spiritualityandpractice.com/books/books.php?id=5160
This is a watershed work of ethical import for all those involved in the helping professions. Ram Dass and Paul Gorman have written a cogent work on caring that tells the stories of those who have served others and found their own lives enriched: a doctor, a minister, a drug counselor, a literacy tutor, a nun, and many others.
"Shall I become involved or not, and if so, how deeply? How much
human pain to let in, and whose?" — these are questoins faced by all
those who care. The authors describe the mental roadblocks (pity,
abstraction, professional warmth) which stifle the "inherent generosity
of the heart." They describe the different motivations for serving
others and the necessary lineaments of "the listening mind."
