the vow of the Bodhisattva
It goes as follows:
The deluding passions are inexhaustible.
I vow to extinguish them all.
Sentient beings are numberless.
I vow to save them all.
The truth is impossible to expound.
I vow to expound it.
The way of the Buddha is unattainable.
I vow to attain it.
I was reading this again this morning and felt like sharing it. As Stephen Gaskin says about it-- "Keeps you busy. Guaranteed for a lifetime."
