Dr Dory, I just finished reading your book and couldn’t stop wetting my eyes! I had to take off my eyeglasses many times because they were got foggy! What a book you’ve written! It will give a lot of disadvantaged a hope and a new life, they would become compassionate, understanding oneself and others as well as not being selfish just a few to mention! I’ve suffered my growing up due to the circumstances I had and still couldn’t get over it, however your book, Into the Magic shop, changed my view of the world around me! You are my hero and this book is going to be my 2nd Bible!
Thank You so much and May God bless you and your humanity work!!!

What an absolutely brilliant human being.
Truly amazing, illuminating and applicable to all individuals who are opened to learning, improving our lives end becoming better human beings. Thank you for your gift.
Dr. Doty makes an excellent argument about compassion and how it can improve the lives of all. Relating this idea of compassion more to the doctor/patient relationship I think we can improve all aspects of healthcare. The focus should be on the relationships we form. Doctors and patients can only work together if they trust each other. This is idea is also backed by research as Dr. Doty mentions. The more compassionate we are as doctors or patients the healthcare outcomes improve across the board. Being compassionate requires a deep understanding of the patient’s needs and experiences. Physicians take an ethical oath before they start practicing medicine and the easiest way that this oath can be upheld is simply by being more compassionate. For healthcare to improve in any way it needs to start at the fundamentals of human interactions.
I love this beautiful human. Amen brother.
Um dos melhores livros que já li.
Uma das melhores pessoas que já ouvi.
Gratidão Dr. Doty
I want to cry- this is such a wonderful message! Thanks and blessings to you and your research. We should share his beautiful video
A very good talk! Thank you!
amazingly beautiful. thank-you.
Those of us watching this today, where are we clapping. It resonates
I admire you Sir !
Very nice talk with authentic back story Dr. Doty...the title needs to say women's empowerment! Women and men will thrive in compassionate work places.
Compassion for all
hola, soy mexicana y felicito al dr. Doty por su conferencia sobre compasión y women empowerment, trata aspectos muy importantes de la vida de las personas que son una gran enseñanza, pero sugiero que busquen un traductor más eficaz o no apliquen al video una traducción automática porque hace perder las ideas, suscribe palabras que no existen, y no le da a la conferencia su magnificencia. Gracias. disfruté y aprendí mucho al verla, gracias doctor Doty.
THANK YOU SO MUCH WHAT AN INSPIRATION
I would be interested in his view on compassion fatigue
Wow! thank you.
Now, let us look at some ways how a person can enhance and increase their compassion and kindness. On a practical level, most people think of themselves first. And then perhaps some relatives and friends. This is often where it ends. In order to cultivate compassion and kindness, a person can make a commitment to try to do some random acts of kindness to at least one other living being every day. Without expecting anything in return. We should not want to be acknowledged, rewarded or even thanked. The more a person do this, the more they will like it. It actually feels really nice because it is in harmony with our spiritual nature to be kind and compassionate.
Fabulous!
Thank You 🌟
Grateful for you
✨💞✨😍
❤❤❤
Great talk 🙏
i would be very interested in learning about Dr Doty's thoughts on Sociopathy, specifically where it comes from and whether he feels compassion can be acquired. I am currently struggling with a friend who is showing signs of Sociopathy and rather than abondom him, I would prefer to help.

grazie!! un libro illuminante arrivato a confermare il mio cammino... apro il cuore e ti ringrazio , mi permetto di darti del tu per non mettere la distanza perchè
facciamo tutti parte di un unica anima!!
Mi spiace solamente di non sapere l'inglese ma non è mai troppo tardi e questa sarà la mia prossima intenzione!!
un caro saluto da Trieste splendida città di mare e di confine di questo splendido paese che è l'Italia...
con la speranza un giorno di vederla nel nostro paese o meglio ancora nella mia splendida città a portare il suo messaggio..
un abbraccio
Roberta Marussi
Andrea Chicco Se non parli inglese allora come hai saputo quello che lui ha detto?
I am in love
Wow.
Where is the compassion part?
I think there's a elementary school named after you, Doty Elementry School!
NOTE: charterforcompassionorg Stanford Center for Compassion and Altruism Research & EDUCATION = MAKE your city chartered ... & join / bee active in social justice organizations........please
why did you say; first World und not just from the World
Why set limits on compassion? Would it make more sense to extend compassion to all being who can suffer? If you believe humans don't have a monopoly on suffering then why not extend this compassion to all beings?
BTS brought me here...
Hey ARMY 💜 You read his book as well?
Erin Cajigas Yeah I'm currently reading his book INTO THE MAGIC SHOP. 😊
@@BTSArmy-ii7co I read it a little while ago, and it was truly am experience. The book changed my life, and I really loved it 😊 I hope you're enjoying it so far!
Erin Cajigas I'm not only enjoying it, I'm loving it. It really infires me.😜
Well It's my first time reading a book, just 'cuz of BTS.
And I just downloaded more books that inspired BTS' songs. I hope they're all good like this one.
I thought you were 12 when you experienced this....according to your book “Into The Magic shop”,
Beverly Delp at his age it’s very normal for him to forget exactly how old he was then.
God bless you. I agree we are made for compassion but I find some of your titles interesting labels and forms of one perspective in life. I believe we are made in the image and likeness of God (love/compassion) and that Free Will is the greatest gift given to all. You get to do what you want and think how you want. Everyone is called to respect the free will/human dignity of others. I choose to praise the Almighty with my life because God has revealed Himself to me. I understand why some don't believe in Jesus (no experiences) but I also know that God is the gift giver. I don't believe humans are smart enough to create a religion (Christianity) that lasted thousands of years. The United States of America is a young civilization when you look at it in a historical perspective. The development of psychology and study of human behavior in the last hundred years compliments the teachings of Jesus. Who knows what the future holds. I don't make the sun raise or the earth spin on its axis. Every day is a blessing, God is gift giver, and energy cannot be destroyed. Peace be with you all. Jesus, I trust you! Amen!
Lovely talk. But not much around the science of compassion. Like all the other talks about compassionate leadership or empathic leadership, it’s very interesting and moving but light on content or evidence. I’m saying this as I see this as an issue for corporations to buy into and embed compassionate leadership as a skills et every person is required to muscle
Up on.
So there are some inferences in the beginning of his speech that are off putting. Injecting politics is really just wrong. But I respect him, and prey for his heath. Because one is compassionate for the unborn doesn't mean they are un-compassionate toward women. It just means destroying a beautiful baby before its born doesn't sit well with some people...
Don't feminists agree with preventing a life from forming fully that has already been conceived if the woman who is carrying that child chooses? He judged Republicans stating they knew nothing about the reproductive system. How does he really know that? How is that compassionate? How is destroying a conceived child compassionate? I'm just confused by this entire talk. This just didn't seem like a talk on the science of compassion to me, but his own warped views from his sad and unfortunate childhood.
Well, wat did the democRATS know about it?
Be a- man
Boo F’ingWHO
fast forward 6+mn anything before isn't helpful
I usually tear up in profound moments. Too much propaganda and not enough profound philosophy. Sorry Doc. Good effort on a topic that’s poorly understood by science types.
Jim turns out to be a hypocrite. His tirade against those who love the unborn is pathetic. I'm a doctor too Jim and I was taught to love and respect all life. What happened to your mnemonic? You feel compelled to judge a faction whom you disagree with, but who love the innocent-does justice only apply to those whom you agree with. I wish i had never bought your book. I am so disappointed in what i heard here
no matter iwhether you are a woman or a doctor or whatever, as a human being this message would be very hard to fault ....but perhaps you have a personal gripe with him ..If by loving the innocent you mean being 'pro-birth' at all costs, then you need to grow up as a woman who is in poverty and has been raped and cannot afford to bring up her baby ... pro-life is very different to pro-birth .. and if you are bringing avchild into a life of suffering, separation from her birth parent, and the shadow of rape , you are talking about imposing a life of misery on an innocent child, you' re not actually talking about 'loving the innocent ' ... only about imposing your moral values on very varying individual situations and saying that any kind of life is better than no life ... and I'm not sure that is very ethical or loving at all. Added to which women who would chose not to have a child for very real reasons, may be forced to go back to doing it the 'backsttreet' way causing even more misery and harm.... EVERY situation should be looked at individually and treated with respect and TRUE compassion ... which means, without judgement,...
And as you mentioned yourself, it is not right to judge a certain faction simply becuase you happen to disagree with them....
alphahorn thank you one for saving lives both on the clinical front and the moral front.
i don’t think i’m gonna finish listening tto it if that is true
First comments bring division to humanity....😢
As an evolutionarist why Dr.Doty thinks we should be compassionate at all??After all, according to him-and which i do not agree with-, we are just a speck of dust, worth nothing more. Why should we love and care at all then?What makes compassion valuable in the eyes of a"my great grandpa was an amphibian" believer?
+Zita Koder Clearly some of us are more evolved than others... We love and care because we are human and have evolved to do so. The same emotions and traits are also found in many other species. Compassion has survival value. At least read some basic science.
so, accoriding to what you said , even compassion is just a selfish evolutionary product...there is no place for real "selflessness" , "compassion" and other values without a Creator.These values are nothing more than their opposites, eg. "selfishness", they just sound better.They are all about just "me".
+Zita Koder how can you have 'real selflessness' or 'real compassion' emerging from an imaginary creator figure? These qualities emerged because they have survival value to the whole tribe, not just the individual. If you put all of your moral authority in the hands of any despot, whether real or imaginary, you have a recipe for officially sanctioned murder, torture and genocide. This has been demonstrated endlessly by various religious and political ideologies over the past few millennia. It is still being demonstrated right now in the actions of fanatics of all persuasions.
Zita Koder Very simple. Your actions will determine the quality of your life. Your relationships, your friends, your opportunities and ultimately the happiness of your life will be determined by how compassionate and loving you can be. So that's why. :)
