3.51

文殊師利菩薩我欲說有四弘誓。何等為四?一者覆育一切眾生,猶如橋船度人無惓;二者苞含萬物猶如大虛;三者願使我身猶如藥樹,其有聞者患苦悉除;四者願我當來得成佛時,所度眾生如恒河沙。是為菩薩曠濟之心。

I, the Bodhisattva Mañjuśrī, wish to speak of four universal vows. What are the four? First, to shelter and nurture all sentient beings, like a bridge or boat carrying people across untiringly; second, to contain myriad things like the great void; third, may my body be like a medicinal tree, so that whoever hears of it has all sicknesses and suffering eliminated; fourth, may it be that when I attain buddhahood in the future, the sentient beings I cross over will be as numerous as the sands of the Gaṅgā. These are the bodhisattva’s mind of vast salvation.
