You hit the nail on the Head.
That is exactly the point of Buddhist Compassion.
It arises from a non egoist point of view.
මමත්වය කියන්නෙ අවිද්‍යාවක් බව දැන ගැනීම තුලින් හට ගන්න කරුණාවක්.

Did Buddha say losing mamathwaya means doubting your own existence?

then who develop karunawa after realizing?

 

[Chethiya Wijayawardhana]

then who develop karunawa after realizing?

the answer should be no one.
because there is no self to begin with.
but I know that does not make any linguistic sense.

 

[Emios]

Ok so if 'I' is an illusion.Then who develop maitree?Is it the state of universe?

buddha does not deal with any thing infinite.
Hindus are master metaphysicians. Buddha was against all that
His concern is with finite things.

Can you explain how compassion exist if there is no self to begin with?

 

[dilann]

1)buduhamduruwanta siyalu sathywayo niwan dakkana aramunak tibbada?

නැහැ..

 

[Emios]

My argument is this whole maitree thing is a hindu concept which got stuck in buddhism.what do you say

 

[dilann]

මොකක් ද බන් මේ ලංකාවට වෙන්නෙ.

 

[Chethiya Wijayawardhana]

Can you explain how compassion exist if there is no self to begin with?

Obviously as someone who still believe in the self, I could not give you an answer to your question.
All I say is when we talk about these topics, we get stuck in ordinary language.
According to language there must be a subject who feels things, that is how we talk about our day to day lives.
But buddha say there is no Subject behind those feelings.
There are just that, Feeling, Sensations, etc..
Of Course We can't construct a meaningful sentence without a Subject.
That is a defect of out Language.

 

[Heshan Daminda]

කොරෝනා වලට බයේ සපත්තුව එපා කිව්වේ, නැතුව සපත්තුවේ ඇති යකෙක් නෑ

So is it possible to say compassion is the reality of existance?

 

[Chethiya Wijayawardhana]

So is it possible to say compassion is the reality of existance?

Even there you are speculating to much.
That is too metaphysical for my comfort.
IDK
May be you are Right.
Compassion is what may be behind everything.

Or did we get buddhism all wrong

 

[Chethiya Wijayawardhana]

Or did we get buddhism all wrong

No, that is a worthy question.
may be one of the harder questions of Buddhism.
Of course with Mahayana, you can see compassion plays a much larger part. (too much part)
But there is a doctrine of Compassion in the Early Buddhism.
