"To try to explain this event is not the way; this is not the time for trying to explain something of this order." Understanding might emerge; but the way to understanding in this case is to hold the pain with those who have suffered so much. The function of compassion is the holding of the pain. It is that faculty or dimension within ourselves that is able to hold pain without judgement, even without being able to explain anything at all".
Thoughts of a Buddhist monk called Munindo, who is based in Northumberland.
