In the second \[fascicle\] of the Prakaraṇāryavācā, the conventional arousal of the thought is described as follows: for instance, there is a class \[of practitioners\] who stand respectfully before a wise person, give rise to a superior mind, and make a vow, saying: 'May the Venerable Elder be mindful of me (or saying: May the Noble One be mindful of me, or saying: Upādhyāya). I, named so-and-so, from this day forth, arouse the mind directed toward anuttarā \[samyak\]bodhi, for the sake of benefiting sentient beings. From this day forward, I vow that all the ten thousand practices of the six pāramitās cultivated by me shall all be for the sake of realizing unexcelled bodhi. I now join in harmony with all bodhisattva mahāsattvas to leave household life; may the Venerable One bear witness that I am a bodhisattva.' The second and third \[repetitions\] are also like this. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 1.25](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1862.1.25) - [Next: 1.27](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1862.1.27) - [Up: 1](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1862.1) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1862~en-mt.1.26) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1862.1.26](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1862.1.26) · Pramāṇa
