Karuṇā

This painting is called "Karuṇā" (करुणा) meaning compassion and self-compassion in the Prākrit Language.

Develop compassion for one-self and all beings ...

Karuṇā is also one of four Brahmavihāras (ब्रह्मविहार). The Brahmavihāras mean the four qualities of a Brahmā (represented by the four heads) which are as follows: 

1. mettā (अनंन्त मैत्री or infinite loving-kindness)

2. karuṇā (अनंन्त करुणा or infinite compassion)

3. muditā (अनंन्त मुदिता or infinite sympathetic-joy)

4. upekkhā (अनंन्त उपेक्षा or समता or infinite equanimity)

These Brahmavihāras can be developed by the practice of purification of the mind or Vipassanā.
