| English | This is how Buddhas and Bodhisattvas claim sentient beings as their own selves in the way explained above, so that even the slightest pain of others is for them as if their entire body were on fire. And they do not have the slightest hesitation in doing so, just as when the Buddha claimed as his own the swan that Devadatta had shot down with an arrow.177It is recorded in the Mahabhinishkramana that Devadatta, the cousin of Prince Siddhartha, took a bow and arrow and shot down a swan. The creature was grounded but not killed. The future Buddha took the bird upon his knees and comforted it. Devadatta sent to claim his prize, no doubt intending to kill it, but the Buddha refused to hand over the swan, saying that the bird was his. An exquisite description of the incident is to be found in The Light of Asia by Sir Edwin Arnold, p. 11: Then our Lord Laid the swan’s neck beside his own smooth cheek And gravely spake, "Say no! the bird is mine, The first of myriad things that shall be mine By right of mercy and love’s lordliness.” Similarly, Machig178This is a reference to Machig Labdrön, the great Tibetan yogini and disciple of the Indian master Padampa Sangye. She is particularly celebrated as the propagator of chö (gcod), a meditative practice in which an offering is made of one’s own body as sustenance for malevolent spirits. said that in the centuries after her, perverted practitioners of chö would with violent means subjugate the wealth-gods, ghosts, and demons, whom she had taken with the crook of her compassion—meaning by this that she had taken these gods and spirits to herself as beings whom she cherished. |
