English	Performing even a small virtue such as giving brings an immeasurable result if given in the following way: from the point of view of time, the action is constant and without interruption; from the point of view of motivation, with inclination; from the point of view of the antidote, it is motivated either by strong desire or lack of attachment to the opposite; it generates great power through meditation on emptiness and the like; and it is performed toward the special field of good qualities such as the Buddha, etc., toward the field of benefit which is parents, or toward the suffering such as the sick. Likewise, non-virtuous actions accumulate sins in a similar way. Therefore, strive to acquire the greatest virtue. The Letter to a Friend42Quoted from Arya Nagarjuna’s A Letter to a Friend, Verse 42. states:

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
