The Bodhisattva Path Quotes

“If the bodhisattvas live during a time of armed conflict,
they give rise to the mind of compassion,
transforming those who are fighting,
and causing them to dwell in a land without contention.
If there are great wars,
the bodhisattvas make the strength on both sides equal.
They manifest their spiritual authority
and subdue people so that peace is restored.”
