Jesus and Buddha (2)

These two verses also compares the views of Jesus and Buddha on compassion.

Jesus
To one who strikes you on the cheek, offer the other also. (Like 6:29)

Buddha
If anyone should give you a blow with his hand, with a stick, or with a knife, you should abandon any desires and utter no evil words. (Majjhima Nikaya 21.6)
