| English | With joy I celebrate the virtue that relieves all beings From the sorrows of the states of loss,45According to the Buddhist teachings, the experience of beings in saṃsāra falls into six broad categories, states, or realms. Birth in these worlds is the fruit of past karma or action. There are three unfortunate states (the states of loss referred to in this verse) in which suffering predominates over every other experience: that of animals, hungry ghosts, and beings in the hells. There are three fortunate realms where suffering is mitigated by temporary pleasures, namely, the heavens of the gods, the realms of the asuras or demigods, and the human condition. The misery of beings in the lower realms is compounded by the fact that their ability to create the positive energy necessary to propel them into higher existences is very weak, while negativity abounds. Exulting in the happy states enjoyed By those who yet are suffering.46Shāntideva rejoices in the condition of beings in the higher saṃsāric realms of human beings, asuras (demigods), and gods. In all these states, the experience of happiness and pleasure is possible even though they are never beyond the possibility of suffering.Blankleder, Helena, and Wulstan Fletcher (Padmakara Translation Group), trans.

For the situation of gods and human beings is happy by comparison with the three lower realms. And yet it too is marred by the three kinds of suffering: the suffering of pain itself, the suffering of change, and all-pervading suffering in the making. And so, with joy in his heart, Shantideva takes pleasure, untainted by jealous rivalry, at the happiness enjoyed by beings while they are in the divine and human realms, where—even though suffering is a constant liability for them—they reap the fruits of their positive actions accomplished in the past and have the enjoyment of physical beauty, youth, power, renown, wealth, and every perfect pleasure. |
