English	"Suppose that someone were to rejoice in the arousing of Awakening Mind by the bodhisattva great beings who are practicing the way for the first time; and also rejoice in the arousing of Awakening Mind by those leading the bodhisattvas’ way of life; and also rejoice in the irreversibility of the irreversible bodhisattva great beings. Blessed One, for the gentleman or lady who does this, how much of a mass of goodness would be generated?"
Flag	Source confirmed: Aṣṭasāhasrikā (Toh 12, D vol. 33, F.235b.4–237a.6); Śāntideva cites it generically as "the Perfection of Wisdom." Spans Multiple Segments (#1389–1393). Abridged throughout: the Aṣṭa's question lists four groups of bodhisattvas (the ŚS keeps three); its answer runs through a graded series of weights (Meru, four-continent world, thousand-, two-thousand- and three-thousandfold world systems), of which the ŚS keeps only the last; Śāntideva also omits 236a.8–236b.6 (further statements on Māra; the Buddha's assent) and Śakra's repetition at 236b.8–237a.1. Kangyur has སྲང་གྲངས་སུ་བཅལ་བ for the ŚS's སྲང་ཚད་ཀྱིས་གཞལ. In the Kangyur, the passage corresponding to #1393 appears to be spoken by Śakra (honorific བགྱིད/མཆིས; the Buddha's reply follows at 237a.6); Goodman attributes it to the Blessed One.

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
