I take upon myself the karma of all beings, even of those in the hells. I take their suffering upon me, I bear it, I do not draw back from it, I do not tremble at it, I do not lose heart. I must bear the burden of all beings, for I have vowed to save all that lives, to bring them safe through the jungle of birth, age, disease, death, and rebirth.
I think not of my own salvation but strive to bestow on all beings the magnificence of supreme wisdom. So I take upon myself all the sorrows of all beings. Truly I will not abandon them. For I have resolved to gain supreme wisdom for the sake of all that lives, to save the world.
