Question

with the weapon of compassion, any defilement, any hatred,can be destroyed.​

Answer 1

Answer:

Matchless Compassion

The passage was given by the great Mahasiddha Virupa. His teaching is a method of training the mind to develop compassion. This particular teaching is called ‘Matchless Compassion Yoga’ (yoga refers to meditation).

Enlightenment can be receive teachings. We have to learn the teachings, and then after learning the teachings, we need to practice them in daily life.

Compassion extremely necessary. It is the root of the Mahayana teachings, the Mahayana path, the Mahayana Dharma. Without compassion, our generosity, moral conduct, meditation, or even the very highest tantric practice, it does not become Mahayana Dharma. Without compassion, the other qualities of buddhahood will not arise.

Loving kindness is like the love of every mother for her child. Just as every parent loves his or her child, all of us have a certain amount of loving kindness. But our loving kindness is very limited because it is usually based on selfish reasons. Such loving kindness is incomplete. To think of the benefit of all sentient beings, you must attain full enlightenment.

The passage infers that since we have changed lives, we do not recognize others. So we must practice compassion. Those we see as enemies may have been our loving mother. When the hatred of both sides clashes, the result is deeply harmful.

In conclusion:, We need to develop compassion toward our most hated enemy because it is possible that the enemy is our mother who gave us so much benefit, so much love, and so much kindness in the cycles of life. For these reasons we need to develop genuine loving kindness and compassion toward our enemy. We must take advantage of every golden opportunity. The best way to use this opportunity is to conquer our defilements—to conquer our hatred, to conquer our desire, and to conquer our ignorance.
