English	For all those impoverished and destitute beings without provisions like wealth and enjoyments, may I become a great treasure that never runs out, no matter how much of it is used. May I become anything and everything that is wanted or needed: a variety of provisions like food, clothes, beds, grains, medicines, ornaments, and rides. May all that is needed effortlessly be laid out before each and every one without the need for their exerting any effort to get it. This is said to be similar to the tale of the nāga treasure-revealer. 322Bodong Choklé Namgyal includes a tale of the nāga treasure-revealer (klu gter ston) in volume 113 of his Collected Works, 472–75.This also appears in the story of the brahman Samudrareṇu spoken of in the White Lotus Sūtra. 323The brahman Samudrareṇu appears in the White Lotus of Compassion Sūtra (Karuṇāpuṇḍarikasūtra, H. 115).The meanings here are taught in the Vimalakīrti Sūtra:

Brahman - Brahman is the universal principle, supreme truth or ultimate reality in the Hindu religion considered to be absolute, eternal and blissful. A metaphysical concept, it is described as the single binding unity behind the diversity of all that exists. In Buddhism, while this metaphysical principle is not presented, one finds frequent mention of the deity named Brahmā, who is the personification of this principle. Skt ब्रह्मन्  Tib ཚངས་པ།

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
