Bodhicitta – thinking and doing

LearningBodhicittaisbasicto allof Mahayana Buddhism. It is the wish of the heart to benefit all sentientbeings. Buddha vowed tobenefit beings in this way, and put this wish into action by practicing the Six Paramitas(generosity, ethics, patience, diligence, meditationand wisdom). Practicing the Paramita constantly in the interests ofall beings is therefore the action of the Bodhisattva.
