Hemacandra, in his 12th century Yoga艣膩stra verse 2.15, defines 补苍耻办补尘辫腻 as the desire to eliminate suffering: in this compassion for those in misery no partiality may be shown, for even a tiger will manifest affection for its own offspring. In its material aspect this virtue takes the form of practical steps to remedy suffering where one has the power and in its non-material aspect it expresses itself in tenderness of heart. It is, as 膧艣膩dhara stresses, the root of the whole sacred doctrine (S膩g膩ra-dharm膩m峁泃a verse 1.4).
