Guest guest Posted June 26, 2007 Report Share Posted June 26, 2007 Hence I should dispel the misery of othersBecause it is suffering, just like my own,And I should benefit othersBecause they are sentient beings,just like myself.When both myself and othersAre similar in that we wish to be happy,What is so special about me?Why do I strive for my happiness alone?And when both myself and othersAre similar in that we do not wish to suffer,What is so special about me?Why do I protect myself and not others?SHANTIDEVA(A Guide to the Bodhisattva's Way of Life - pg 104-105)He who never forgets the good done him by others,Who remembers favors and repays kindness,He whose thoughts are kind and honest,Him do the great ones help and praise.NAGARJUNA(Nagarjuna's Drop of Nourishment for people - pg 8) For inspiring divine messages, texts, movies, videos, etc.,Visit : Sai Messages : http://saimessages.blogspot.com/ Sai Divine Inspirations : http://saidivineinspirations.blogspot.com/ Love Is My Form : http://loveismyform.blogspot.com/ (for non-Sai members) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
