need to be compassionate towards those non-religious and
sinful people who are affected by karma? There are two types
of karma–

1) Dravya Karma (external karma)

2) Bhava Karma (internal Karma)

Do I need to specify that this Bhava Karma is much more
important? Instead of showing compassion, if you get angry
on these misguided and sinful people, then where will you
shower your compassion? On those who are perfect?
Absolutely religious?

Religious faith is directly proportional to compassion.

Religion cannot exist without compassion. Because in its
absence the person becomes stone-hearted.

Q. Does that imply that all religious people are
compassionate and forgiveful by nature??

Ans. No, it isn’t a rule. A religious person can also succumb
to anger but it does not make him arrogant. He does not
justify it. “If the opposite person behaves in such a way, aren’t
you bound to get angry? If he feels hurt, it is his problem,

what can I do? The present situation demands anger.” Such
a mental state is sure to steal your compassion. Instead you
should have a compassionate outlook which does not
encourage anger, does not consider it a necessity even if the
opposite person obstructs your religious activities. You should
harbour ceaseless compassion for such ignorant people.
