English	This point of view seems to be contradicted by the story of Shariputra as recounted in the Pundarika-sutra. He generated the enlightened attitude, venerated ten thousand Buddhas, and worked for the benefit of beings. But in the course of his life as King Vinasiva, he was approached by a malevolent demon who, appearing in the form of a brahmin, asked for his right hand. The king cut off his right hand and presented it with his left. "I will not accept,” the demon cried, "an offering presented with such disrespect!” Shariputra was downcast and forsook his bodhichitta. He attained liberation nevertheless and, having become an Arhat, worked for the welfare of beings. Likewise in the Kanakavarnavadana, it is said that a man forsook his bodhichitta after practicing it for forty kalpas but became a Pratyekabuddha nevertheless. There is however no contradiction here. As for those who, losing bodhichitta, Lead others nonetheless to liberation, Karmic law is inconceivable And only understood by the Omniscient.50The celebrated case of this was that of the Buddhaʼs disciple Shāriputra, as recorded in the Saddharmapuṇdarīka-sūtra, the Lotus Sūtra. It is said that Shāriputra was a practitioner of the Mahāyāna who had progressed far along the path. One day a demon appeared to him and, wishing to put him to the test and if possible contrive his downfall, asked him for his right hand. Shāriputra cut it off and gave it to the demon. But the demon was angry and refused to accept it, complaining that Shāriputra had impolitely offered it to him with his left! At this point, it is said that Shāriputra lost hope of ever being able to satisfy the desires of beings, and turned from the Mahāyāna to pursue the path to arhatship. When those who, on losing their bodhichitta, do not fall into the lower realms, but on the contrary attain liberation and even lead others to deliverance, this is due to the karma they have previously accumulated.

Arhat - A person who has reached nirvāṇa by eliminating the three poisons of attachment, hatred and ignorance having followed the path of seeking individual liberation as a Śrāvaka or a Pratyekabuddha.

Pratyekabuddha - Pratyekabuddhas are saints who, in their last birth in the cycle of existence, are said to become enlightened through solitary practice on the nature of dependent ordination.

Śrāvaka - The disciples of the Buddha who aspire to attain individual liberation or nirvāṇa. The final goal of the Hearers is to become an arhat, a state in which one has totally eliminated the inner problems of attachment, hatred and ignorance, the main causes for rebirth in this cycle of existence. There are four stages of a śrāvaka path including eight phases. Skt श्रावक  Tib ཉན་ཐོས།  Ch 聲聞

Bodhisattva - A person who seeks enlightenment for the sake of others. In Mahāyāna Buddhism, a bodhisattva is a compassionate being who is training on the path to buddhahood and aspires to eliminate the suffering of all beings and take all sentient beings to the state of enlightenment. The Mahāyāna sūtras including those on buddha-nature generally have bodhisattvas as the main audience or interlocutors for the Buddha's discourses. Skt बोधिसत्त्व  Tib བྱང་ཆུབ་སེམས་དཔའ།  Ch 菩薩
