Understanding
With a determination to accomplish The highest welfare for all sentient beings, Who surpass even a wish-granting jewel I will learn to hold them supremely dear.
Whenever I associate with others I will learn, To think of myself as the lowest among all, And respectfully hold others to be supreme, From the very depths of my heart.
In all actions I will learn to search into my mind And as soon as an afflictive emotion arises Endangering myself and others, Will firmly face and avert it.
I will learn to cherish all beings of bad nature And those oppressed by strong sins and sufferings, As if I had found a precious Treasury very difficult to find.
When others out of jealousy treat me badly With abuse, slander, and so on, I will learn to take all loss And offer the victory to them.
When one whom I have benefited with great hope Unreasonably hurts me very badly , I will learn to view that person As an excellent spiritual guide.
In short, I will learn to offer to everyone without exception, All help and happiness directly and indirectly, And respectfully take upon myself, All harm and suffering of my mothers.
I will learn to keep these practices, Undefiled by the stains of the eight worldly conceptions, And by understanding all phenomena as like illusion, Be released from the bondage of attachment.
