The One Who Keeps a Low Profile Achieves Great Cause
“7. In brief, directly or indirectly,
I will offer help and happiness to all my mothers,
And secretly take upon myself
All their hurt and suffering.”
Place yourself in others’ shoes, take it upon yourself all their negative karma, and dedicate all of your own benefits, merits, as well as the three auspicious elements of fortune, prosperity and longevity to all sentient beings.
All the while, quietly carry out the above endeavors without a great deal of fanfare or pomp. Commit virtuous deeds without the intention of being known, if so, then everything will be OK!
I urge you to bear these in mind, and not forget after just a casual glance.
