73. The Actual Generation of Bodhicitta

Meditation Guide

The Beginning

Take refuge and arouse bodhichitta.

The Main Part

Think: For the sake of all sentient beings, I give rise to the supreme bodhicitta. Until not even a single sentient being remains in samsara, I shall train myself diligently in the vast deeds of bodhisattvas. ... Having established your support, then you formally arouse bodhicitta... Recite the vajra words... I will take across those sentient beings who have not crossed over... I will liberate all living beings who are not yet liberated.

Reminder

Regarding this practice, it is ideal to read the liturgy once a day.

The Ending

Dedicate the merit of your practice to all sentient beings.
