English	There are five unique root downfalls from the Bodhisattva Grounds—five from among the eight root downfalls in terms of the endeavor—that are not mentioned in the Ākāśagarbha Sūtra. They are the five of: not giving the Dharma, not giving wealth, beating, not accepting an apology, and teaching a bogus dharma. The other ones, both praising oneself and criticizing others, and the third of rejecting the Mahāyāna, are shared root downfalls taught in the Ākāśagarbha Sūtra, and how they are subsumed within it was mentioned above.

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
