A novice's question - DiscussWorldIssues - Socio-Economic Religion and Political Uncensored Debate

**Terinalo** · 08-23-2012, 04:22 PM

My name is Lunadia, and I am new to the forum. I've been studying Buddhism for some time, and I consider myself a devotee of H. H. the Dalai Lama. His philosophy makes sense to me over all other beliefs whether religious, political or moral.

My question is: In my effort to find compassion for a person whose actions have been despicable toward others, is it necesssary for me to rid myself entirely of my contempt for those actions?
