Description

when one reflects on these things then passages from the Bodhicaryavatara and other bodhisattva texts make definite sense. For example, Santideva says in the Bodhicaryavatara, “Why should I seek nirvana?” Similarly Bhavaviveka states in his text called the Heart of Madhyamika; “Through insight into the unsatisfactory nature of existence I will be freed from attachment to existence. However through the power of compassion I distance myself from seeking nirvana”.
- His Holiness the Dalai Lama
