I think compassion is an emotional property. It is an emotional "boat" or "pipe" or container to shuttle the pure energy of love from self to self or other-self. Kryon says it is a uniquely human sensation, and that a continual compassionate connection between the higher self and the perceived self is the key to positive mastery.
I'd have to disagree with the characterization. Generally, emotions are unconscious reactions. However, compassion involves a conscious connection or understanding. So compassion is not inherently an 'emotional property'.
Compassion may be accompanied by an unconscious reaction, to the extent that one is not aware of the situation. The ability to express compassion or be compassionate is limited by one's consciousness or conscious awareness.
The liklihood and intensity of certain emotions manifesting in the future is shaped by our will now, the strongest motivator for shaping an abundance of positive emotions and minimal negative emotions being compassion. If I act nice to someone now then even If it wasn't motivated out of conscious compassion now it was indirectly brought out by compassion I felt in the past.
