Answer:

Empathic concern

Step-by-step explanation:

In Buddhism, compassion comes from empathic concern. Empathy is a feeling toward other people emotions and an attempt to understand them. Compassion is a response to understanding and creates a desire to help others. Instead of centring on empathy, Buddhism practices compassion called karuna. This is the purpose of sharing suffering and having concern for other people.
