Jesus and Buddha (6)

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

Jesus
I tell you, there is joy before the angels of God over one sinner who repents. (Luke 15.10)


Buddha
The Bodhisattva loves all living beings as if each were his only child. (Vimalakirtinirdesha Sutra 5)
