Praises on Bodhicitta 71 – 75

(71)
Possessing the bliss of Bodhicitta,
Albeit without the fortunes of nagas,
Nor the august power of the Brahma,
One still stands atop of men and devas.

(72)
The Three Realms can be weighed,
The vast ocean can be measured with a ladle,
The merits of Bodhicitta,
Cannot be enumerated to exhaustion even by the Buddha.

(73)
Practice solely the Bodhicitta,
Saves the need for any additional deeds,
Towards all beings in the infinite space,
Gives rise to perfect Compassion.

(74)
The guardian lord of sentient beings like Tathagata,
The incomparable and supreme marks and signs,
The two aspects of omniscience,
All derived from Bodhicitta.

(75)
Bodhicitta, the all-encompassing beauty,
Bodhicitta, the all-encompassing joy,
Bodhicitta, the all-encompassing happiness,
Bodhicitta, the all-encompassing perfection.
