We should feel compassion for their poor inhabitants and wish that they be freed from their dreadful torments of cold, and we should wish that, thanks to the strength of our merit, pleasant warmth and the rays of the sun melt the mountains of snow and the icy glaciers and that the infernal regions become like celestial realms, where the inhabitants enjoy the deep pleasure of gentle warmth.

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
