Compassion
This ancient symbol seems to represent many meanings all at once: Compassion, Benevolence, Charity, and Human Kindness. The vertical strokes in the left half of the symbol represent a human being, and the two horizontal strokes in the right half represent the numeral two. The idea is that whenever two people meet, they will naturally be compassionate toward each other, because they are people. What a wonderful idea.... The smaller symbols along the left border, from the top, represent Hope and Gentle Kindness
