For it is said in the Śrīmālāsiṃhanādasūtra: "Blessed One, whatever bodhisattva aspirations there are, equal to the sands of the river Gaṅgā, they are all deposited in, included within, and established upon one single great aspiration: that is, the embrace of the true Dharma. Such is the vast scope, Blessed One, of the embrace of the true Dharma."
