皆应有之慈心
如同母亲不顾自身生命
地护念她唯一的孩子,
愿人们也能对众生
散发这样无量的慈心。
释迦牟尼佛
《慈经》
Loving-kindness All Should Have
Like [a] mother not considering one’s own life to mindfully protect her only child, may all also [be] able [to], towards sentient beings, radiate this kind of immeasurable mind [with] loving-kindness.
Śākyamuni Buddha
(Loving-Kindness Sūtra)
佛已有之悲心
我哀愍汝
等诸天人民,
甚于父母念子。
释迦牟尼佛
《无量寿经》
Compassion Buddhas Already Have
I sympathise [with] you [and] all other heavenly [and] human people, more than fathers [and] mothers mindful [of their] children.
Śākyamuni Buddha
(Immeasurable Life Sūtra)
Note: While the Buddhas urge us to have immeasurable loving-kindness for all beings, as if they are our only children, they already have immeasurable compassion for all beings, more than all our parents. Perfectly mindful as they already are of us, we must be sincerely mindful of them, so as to connect more fully to their blessings.
