3 quotes from The Way of the Bodhisattva

"All things are but a dream; they have no reality. Where the mind is joyful, there does it wish to dwell. But its dwelling is never the same, and can never be made stationary; it is a constant stream of movement, of change, of becoming."
"May I be the doctor and the medicine and may I be the nurse for all sick beings in the world until everyone is healed."
"When I speak, may I speak the truth; when I act, may I act in a way that helps others, and may I always serve with compassion and humility, looking out for the well-being of all beings."

Author : Shantideva

Shantideva was an 8th-century Indian Buddhist monk and philosopher, renowned for his profound teachings and contributions to Mahayana Buddhism. Hailing from the monastic university of Nalanda, he is best known for his seminal work, "The Way of the Bodhisattva" (Bodhicharyavatara), which elucidates the path of the Bodhisattva—an enlightened being dedicated to the welfare of all sentient beings. Shantideva's insights blend profound philosophical ideas with practical guidance on cultivating compassion and wisdom, establishing him as a pivotal figure in Buddhist thought. His life story, marked by humility and deep spiritual commitment, further inspires practitioners seeking to embody the ideals of selflessness and altruism in their journey towards enlightenment.
