Every living thing that comes to the world is created with the seeds of compassion in its heart. Some of us noticed these seeds and grew them with love, while some of us failed to realize the existence of these seeds and faded their impact. But I would like to mention one detail so that no one falls into despair. Just as a wilting flower becomes greener after a while as a result of selfless treatment, a person's compassion will come to life when he invests in his compassion.
I would like all our readers who read these lines to make a decision today and banish the idea of "disease arises from compassion" from their minds as much as they can, and even decide to destroy this belief.
A disease does not arise from compassion. Let's not forget that if a disease arises, it will arise not from the mercy we show, but from the lack of mercy of the other person. A merciless heart is the killer of goodness.
The heart symbolizes the spiritual center within us, there is mercy and goodness in the creation of the heart. Persistence in bad behavior darkens the heart, a person whose heart is darkened loses his compassion, a person who loses his compassion has a sick heart. A person whose heart is sick cannot taste the peace that mercy brings. Mercy; It is the complement of emotions, thoughts and virtues. Goodness, compassion, humility, justice and many more…
One's; His positive attitudes and behaviors towards every living creature and nature are a reflection of the fountain of compassion flowing in his heart. At this point, I would like to tell you about the story of the Scorpion and the Dervish.
The Story of the Scorpion and the Dervish
The dervish wants to save the scorpion that fell into the water. When he dips his hand into the water to save her, the scorpion stings his hand.
After some time, the dervish tries to pull the scorpion out again and the scorpion stings his hand again.
Those who see this, attack this scorpion that harms you even though they want to do good. They say why are you helping? The dervish's answer is meaningful.
-“It is in the nature of the scorpion to sting, but in my nature it is to love and have mercy on the created. Should I change my nature just because the scorpion is doing what its nature requires?
I've been observing this. It's as if a part of us is afraid of being good, doing good, living compassionately and with a soft heart, and sometimes tries to stay away from doing good. But we must not forget Trying to stay away from the emotions in one's being only harms oneself and diminishes one's life. Maybe we stay away from doing good and showing our mercy because we think we will be treated badly. But let's not forget! Keeping silent and staying away so as not to be subjected to oppression, wrongdoing and ill-treatment means not speaking up and supporting the ruthlessness of the oppressor. We have to stand up against the ruthlessness of the oppressor who oppresses the oppressed, and I must add this; If we stray from the truth and harm someone with our lack of mercy, we will harm all humanity.
I would like to end my article with a few passages from Master Necip Fazıl Kısakürek's work titled Reis Bey.
Innocent prisoner. He says:
- “Mr. Chief! You cannot cry! If you could cry, you would understand. You believe that only evil can arise from compassion and pity. You are right to some extent. But you are losing the greatest right because you forget what great good will come from it! Mercy has been removed from your heart! You are traveling through the ice desert! Mr. Chief! I wish your sealed heart to open. ”
…
Chief Bey:
-“Instead of strengthening the power of evil in people by beating them, softening them with hohlala. Mercy! The elixir that we need like air and water... A power that can turn an upside down society upside down. The child I brutally took to execution; "You are traveling through an ice desert," he said to me. he said. All of us, all humanity, are traveling through the ice desert! Even the breaths we take freeze into jagged rocks. We stab with our eyes while looking, and poison with our ears while listening! It pollutes the palate and freezes the hand! We don't know the laws of all these, but we are trying to make laws! Will it ever happen? You raise the tiger, feed it, then lasso it and rope it because it claws! It's a shame for the tiger, it's a sin for the tiger, mercy!
Judge:
-Then punishment measures, rights, justice and laws are unnecessary, right?
-Chief Bey:
It's not like that! These are measures over internal treatment, such as the doctor being forced to amputate an entire limb when he cannot find a cure...
Prosecutor:
-Sir. Even if mercy were bread, even if it were distributed slice by slice to all humanity, nothing would fall to its share, this is the cursed one!
Of course the dawn will take your night n throws at the end. Let's not lose our compassion and hope. I wish you a merciful life.
