མི་འདོད་བཞིན་དུ་ཁལ་བཀལ་ཏོ། ། བདག་གིས་ནི་ད་ལྟར་མཉེས་པར་བྱས་ཏེ། དགེ་བའི་ལུས་ཐོབ་ཀྱིས་ལུས་དང་སྲོག་ལ་མི་བལྟ་བར་སློབ་དཔོན་ལ་ནི་རིམ་གྲོ་དང་། བསྙེན་བཀུར་བྱའོ་ཞེས། ཤཱ་རིའི་བུ་སེམས་བསྐྱེད་པ་བཞི་པ་དེ་བསྐྱེད་ནས་ བྱང་ཆུབ་སེམས་དཔའ་སློབ་དཔོན་ལ་རིམ་གྲོ་དང་བསྙེན་བཀུར་བྱེད་དེ ཐ་ན་ཆུ་བུམ་པ་གང་ཙམ་ཡང་འབུལ་ལོ། །
“Furthermore, Śāriputra, the bodhisatva cultivates the following thought: ‘For a long time I had no spiritual friends. Surrounded by evil friends, I was lazy, I had little vigor, I was idle and stupid, and I had the sort of opinions, the sort of tendencies, and the sort of convictions that led me to believe that it would not be evil, and that there would be no evil consequences, if I injured sentient beings, if I left them crying and wailing as I slapped and beat them, completely enveloped by anger. In this way I developed many bad habits, and as a result of these unwholesome habits I had to endure terrible states of existence. In the realm of animals I was not able to rely upon those who are worthy of veneration, and as a camel, a cow, or a donkey I had to live on grass, be beaten with sticks, suffer fear, work against my will, and be used as a pack animal. In this kind of state I had no inclination to serve those who are worthy of veneration. Now that I have attained this fortunate state, and now that my motivation is good, I will honor the teachers and apply myself to the cycle of teachings contained in The Collected Teachings on the Bodhisatva, with no concern for my body or my life.’
