Lets say that empathy is to emotions what understanding is to intellect. We then need a word that describes the process of achieving empathy akin to If I follow youre logic then yes, I understand. In Stranger From a Strange Land, L. Ron Hubbard gave us grok, which comes close, but then came Scientology, so were back to needing a new word here

For this one I suggest ‘BEING LIMBIC” based upon the part of the brain, the limbic system, from which emotion arises
