Even if one practices many kinds of wholesome deeds for kalpas, one only attains the flower-recompense of humans and gods, but has not yet attained the true fruit of transcending the world. When life ends and blessings are exhausted, one falls back into the wretched destinies, one's body destroyed and oppressed by suffering, unable to deliver oneself; unless one establishes great vows and generates a vast mind, there is no way to forever leave the decay and affliction of birth and death. Today, we should solely fix our mindfulness on all Buddhas, arouse a steadfast resolve, and generate the bodhicitta. The merit of generating this mind cannot be weighed; the Buddhas and bodhisattvas cannot finish speaking of it; such wholesome power is inconceivable—how could one not with the utmost mind learn to be focused on one intention? The Great Collection Sūtra says: 'Just as a dark room of a hundred years can be broken by a single lamp.' Do not say that a single thought is slight and so fail to exert effort. Together let us kneel on both knees, wholeheartedly join our palms, universally contemplate all the Three Jewels of the ten directions, and in our minds contemplate and with our mouths utter: 'We, \[so-and-so\] and the rest, now before all the Buddhas of the ten directions, before all the revered Dharmas of the ten directions, before all the bodhisattvas of the ten directions, and before all the worthy and noble ones of the ten directions, kneel on both knees and join our palms with straightforward minds and right mindfulness, giving rise to an earnest mind, a heedful mind, a settled mind, a mind delighting in the wholesome, a mind to deliver all, a mind to protect all, and a mind equal to all Buddhas, generating the bodhicitta. We, \[so-and-so\] and the rest, from this day forth until sitting at the bodhimaṇḍa, will not attach to the minds of humans and devas, will not give rise to the minds of śrāvakas, and will not give rise to the minds of pratyekabuddhas; we will only give rise to the Mahāyāna mind, the mind seeking sarvākārajñatā, and the mind fulfilling anuttarā samyaksambodhi. We only beseech all the Buddhas throughout the ten directions to the ends of space, the bodhisattvas of the great grounds, and all the noble ones, by the power of their fundamental vows to bear witness for us now, and by the power of their compassion and loving-kindness to aid and embrace us, so that the mind generated today by \[so-and-so\] and the rest may remain steadfast and never regress wherever we are born. Even if in the three wretched paths or fallen into the eight difficulties, receiving various bodies and suffering various afflictions hard to bear and endure within the three realms, we vow never to regress or lose today's great mind because of suffering. We would rather enter the great fire-wheel of the Avīci Hell to suffer various torments, but vow never to regress or lose today's great mind because of suffering. May this mind and this vow be equal to the minds of all Buddhas and identical to the vows of all Buddhas.' Once again, with utmost sincerity, we bow our heads in homage to the Three Jewels. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 2.6](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1909.2.6) - [Next: 2.8](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1909.2.8) - [Up: 2](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1909.2) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1909~en-mt.2.7) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1909.2.7](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1909.2.7) · Pramāṇa
