Additional quotes by Shantideva

May the slander, harm And all forms of abuse That anyone should direct towards me Act as a cause of their enlightenment.

Like a blind man fumbling in garbage Happens to find a rare and precious gem, Likewise I have discovered The jewel of the precious Bodhimind. Thus was found this supreme ambrosia to dispel The Lord of death, destroyer of life; An inexhaustible treasure able to cure The poverty of all sentient beings.

May no one who encounters me Ever have an insignificant contact.

In the spiritual energy that relieves The anguish of beings in misery and Places depressed beings in eternal joy I lift up my heart and rejoice. - Shantideva
