Compassion like the CPU is recognizing here is made of dense vibrating strings; that can be made from static consciousness with very little understanding (Maya), and through wisdom's ascension through the dimensions, we can create a constructive increase in everything we encounter.When someone talk about compassion for all living beings what is your understanding of this form of compassion?
Sentient beingsMy first thought is that "all living beings" is awfully broad; unworkably broad.
If you want an incisive discussion you have to hone your terms to a fine edge, else we'll all be talking past each other.
All sentient beings.As previously stated, "all living beings" is kind of wide, how do you define being?
Examples,
The ebola virus is living, is it a being
The mosquito is living and can even be said to have intelligence, is it a bring?
Same with the salt water crocodile
How about someone like radovan karadzic or mass murderers such as members of the LRA
All sentient beings.
I can not talk for others but my view is that i have compassion toward those who also do evil deeds, because i wish them to see what they do wrong and wish them to understand that doing good deeds are better then staying as evil beings (humans)
When it comes to animals or bugs i do not kill them, because i do not wish to harm them, so i treat them with respect and happiness
I do not believe that type of person deserves compassion.
Like trans people?Sentient beings
for these cases of terrorists, in my opinion, the compassion is transferable to the parents or other family members if they are alive.
if there is not family and friends, there is the matter of making the person into a martyr... but that is not compassion, that's being practical.
I have compassion toward every human being, if i have said anything negative toward transe people that would be wrong of me. And i can say i have no negative to say about them now.Like trans people?
If I remember correctly, you didn't show much compassion for them.

Being completely indifferent to a person does not make them a martyr.
I was injured (slightly) in the 1996 Manchester bombing (my aunt not so lucky). Do i have compassion for the IRA cell that carried out the bombing? No. Do i consider them martyrs? No, they are still living (i believe). I do however consider them to be terrorists and murderers (see warrington bombing).
