Being Is Not Indifferent to Suffering

A man asks about the nature of love and about being’s apparent indifference to suffering. Rupert clarifies that it’s not accurate to say being is indifferent to suffering; rather, being does not experience suffering. When being seemingly divides itself into subject and object, it appears to become a separate self, at which point it cannot be indifferent to suffering. A finite mind with a non-dual understanding responds to suffering with love and compassion.
