Bodhisattva Vow - Beastie Boys
As i develop the awakening mind
I praise the Buddha as they shine
I bow before you as I travel my path
to join your ranks,
I make my full time task
For the sake of all beings I seek
The enlighted mind that I know I'll reap
Respect to Shantideva and all the others
Who brought down the Darma
for sisters and brothers
I give thanks for this world as a place to learn
And for this human body that i'm
glad to have earned
And my deepest thanks to all sentient beings
For without them there would be no
place to learn what I'm seeing
There's nothing here
that's not been said before
But I put it down now so I'll be sure
To solidify my own views
and I'll be glad if it helps
Anyone else out too
- 간 주 중 -
If others disrespect me or give me flack
I'll stop and think before i react
Knowing that they're going
through insecure stages
I'll take the opportunity to exercise patience
I'll see it as a chance to help the other person
Nip it in the bud before it can worsen
A change for me to be strong and sure
As I think on the Buddhas
who have come before
As I praise and respect the good they've done
Knowing only love can conquer
in every situation
We need other people in order to create
The circumstances for the learning
that we're here to generate
Situations that bring up our deepest fears
So we can work to release
them until they're cleared
Therefore, it only makes sense
To thank our enemies despite their intent
- 간 주 중 -
The Bodhisattva path is one
of power and strength
A strength from within to go the length
Seeing others are as important as myself
I strive for a happiness of mental wealth
With the interconnectedness
that we share as one
Every action that we take affects everyone
So in deciding for what a situation calls
There is a path for the good for all
I try to make my every action
for that highest good
With the altruistic wish to achieve Buddhahood
So i pledge here before
everyone who's listening
To try to make my every action
for the good of all beings
For the rest of my lifetimes and even beyond
I vow to do my best to do no harm
And in times of doubt I can think
on the Dharma
And the enlightened ones
who've graduated Samsara
