བྱང་ཆུབ་སེམས་མཆོག་རིན་པོ་ཆེ། |
by Shantideva
May the precious and supreme bodhicitta
Arise in those in whom it has not yet arisen;
And where it has arisen may it not decrease
But ever increase more and more.
This aspiration summarizes the entire Bodhisattva-caryāvatāra and its ten chapters in 913 stanzas.
May the precious and sublime awakened mind
Arise in those where it has not arisen.
Where it has arisen may it never wane
But continue to increase forever more.
May supreme, precious bodhicitta
Take birth where it has not arisen.
Where it has arisen, may it never wane
But continue to grow forever more!
May bodhichitta, great and precious,
Arise where it has not arisen.
Never weakening where it has arisen,
May it grow ever more and more.
DKC
Awakening mind is precious.
May it arise where it has not arisen.
May it not fade where it has arisen.
May it ever grow and flourish.
JANG-CH’UP-SEM CH’OK RIN-PO-CH’É May the precious, most exalted Mind of Enlightenment (bodhicitta),
MA-KYEY-PA NAM KYEY-GYUR CHIK Be born where it has yet to be born;
KYEY-PA NYAM-PA-MEY-PA YANG And having been born, may it never diminish,
GONG-NAY GONG-DU P’EL-WAR SHOK But further increase ever more.
