Karuna

Compassion and kindness toward all beings

The Heart of Humanity

Karuna is compassion - the tender response to the suffering of others and the desire to alleviate it. It flows from recognizing our fundamental interconnectedness with all life.

Compassion in Action

• Responding to community members in times of hardship
• Providing support services without judgment
• Extending help beyond our immediate community
• Advocating for those who cannot speak for themselves
• Creating a culture of caring and empathy

Our support services, seva initiatives, and community care networks all flow from karuna. We train volunteers in compassionate listening and response, ensuring help is offered with genuine warmth and understanding.
