Praises on Bodhicitta 26 – 30

(26)
Merits accumulate without getting lost;
Recompense for good deeds proliferate in abundance;
Karmic obstacles and afflictions absolve and vanish;
Bodhicitta surpasses Cintamani.

(27)
Wish-fulfilling Cintamani
grants all wishes asked,
Whilst Mahasattva
benefits sentient beings without asking.

(28)
Monarch, the preeminent of all people;
Mt. Meru, the highest mountain atop the world;
Femme fatale, the bombshell of Don Juan;
Bodhicitta, the rarest and the most extraordinary of all sentient beings.

(29)
Bodhisattva, the awakened one who enlightens sentient beings,
eradicates their sufferings,
and watches them ceaselessly with keen eyes and all ears,
day and night.

(30)
The one who holds Bodhicitta dear to heart,
would rejoice at whatever comes to pass in life, be it birth, death or sickness;
esteemed and revered by all sentient beings;
as they pay homage to Bodhicitta for its great compassion.
