Regarding “Therefore, if a bodhisattva takes pleasure in benefit toward sentient beings, one should know that the intended meaning is taking pleasure in peace and happiness”: “pleasure” is desire; desiring to give benefit to others inherently brings the desire to give peace and happiness to others. This is the preliminary mind prior to bestowing benefit and happiness on others. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 8.491](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1828.8.491) - [Next: 8.493](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1828.8.493) - [Up: 8](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1828.8) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1828~en-mt.8.492) — English, machine translation ## Linked texts (1) - [瑜伽師地論](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.sanskrit.darsana.yogacara.yogacarabhumi*zh-xuanzang.35.138) — Classical Chinese --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1828.8.492](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1828.8.492) · Pramāṇa
