Recitation by Lopen Karma Phuntsho

93

And other beings’ pain

I do not feel, and yet, Because I take them for myself,98In other words, Shāntideva will help others in just the same way that he attends to the needs of his own body.

Their suffering is mine and therefore hard to bear.

Do not fall upon oneself. Yet, they are one’s sufferings,

Holding them as mine, they are difficult to bear.

Likewise, another's suffering

Does not fall upon me; Although that is the case, their suffering
