Bodhisattva Vow

Beastie Boys

As I Develop The Awakening Mind I Praise The Buddha As They Shine



I Bow Before You As I Travel My Path To Join Your Ranks,



I Make My Full Time Task



For The Sake Of All Beings I Seek



The Enlighted Mind That I Know I'll Reap



Respect To Shantideva And All The Others



Who Brought Down The Darma For Sisters And Brothers



I Give Thanks For This World As A Place To Learn



And For This Human Body That I'm Glad To Have Earned



And My Deepest Thanks To All Sentient Beings



For Without Them There Would Be No Place To Learn What I'm Seeing



There's Nothing Here That's Not Been Said Before



But I Put It Down Now So I'll Be Sure



To Solidify My Own Views And I'll Be Glad If It Helps



Anyone Else Out Too



If Others Disrespect Me Or Give Me Flack



I'll Stop And Think Before I React =



Knowing That They're Going Through Insecure Stages



I'll Take The Opportunity To Exercise Patience



I'll See It As A Chance To Help The Other Person



Nip It In The Bud Before It Can Worsen



A Change For Me To Be Strong And Sure



As I Think On The Buddhas Who Have Come Before



As I Praise And Respect The Good They've Done



Knowing Only Love Can Conquer In Every Situation



We Need Other People In Order To Create



The Circumstances For The Learning That We're Here To Generate



Situations That Bring Up Our Deepest Fears



So We Can Work To Release Them Until They're Cleared



Therefore, It Only Makes Sense



To Thank Our Enemies Despite Their Intent



The Bodhisattva Path Is One Of Power And Strength



A Strength From Within To Go The Length



Seeing Others Are As Important As Myself



I Strive For A Happiness Of Mental Wealth



With The Interconnectedness That We Share As One



Every Action That We Take Affects Ever
