“The best definition of a Sikh is one I heard probably over 40 years ago, when someone stood up at a course and asked the Siri Singh Sahib the question: “What is a Sikh?” and he responded, “Someone who doesn’t judge.” I found that helpful and try to apply it. 

As I have mentioned previously, a definition of compassion that resonated with me was meeting people “where the hurt is.” In my reality now is the awareness that, if I can’t bring myself to that place where the hurt is and provide assistance, then perhaps, despite nearly 50 years of diligent effort, I have not really progressed very much. ”
