REFLECTION

1.The altruistic intention of bodhicitta encompasses all sentient beings. Generating it uplifts our hearts and gives meaning to our lives.

2.Generating bodhicitta begins with wanting to free ourselves from the three kinds of duḥkha or unsatisfactory conditions — the duḥkha of pain, the duḥkha of change, and the pervasive duḥkha of conditioning.

3.Like us, other sentient beings are afflicted by the three types of duḥkha. Like us, they want to be happy and avoid misery. In addition, they have been and will continue to be kind to us. Generate compassion wishing them to be free from all duḥkha.

4.Based on this compassion, generate the altruistic intention to become fully awakened so that you can bring this about.
