(16) The incomparable Bodhicitta, is like father the great warrior and like mother of unwavering perseverance, which can bring immense benefits and bliss.

(17) The wonderful jewel of Bodhicitta, burns down karmaic hindrances like fire. The timely rainfall of Bodhi, brings bounteous fruits of virtue.

(18) Bodhicitta is like a tree, provides shade and shelter for people to stay away from the summer heat, and serves as a place for food & nest for insects, ants, birds, beasts and such beings.

(19) Bodhi is like jet, taking you quickly to the Paramita. Bodhi is like the internet, knowing and understanding all matters.

(20) The fragrance of flowers attracts bees and butterflies. Bodhicitta, that benefits and brings joy to all, attracts all beings such as devas, nagas, men and animals to yearn and come for submission with joy, even from afar. Palyul Choktrul Urgyen Translation DreamStudio 2020/11/10 - 11/14
