"I vow to save
all sentient
beings."
A big order,
worthy of
many lifetimes.
The Dharma wheel
spins.
Lifetimes
fall away.
Perhaps,
after enough
times around
the wheel,
this is possible.
I hope so.
After all:
I am
a sentient being
too.

A BODHISATTVA IS an ordinary person who takes up a course in his or her life that moves in the direction of buddha. You're a bodhisattva, I'm a bodhisattva; actually, anyone who directs their attention, their life, to practicing the way of life of a buddha is a bodhisattva. - Trycycle
Bodhisattvas are enlightened beings who have put off entering paradise in order to help others attain enlightenment. Quite a compassionate sacrifice.
