Four Great Vows; (Four Universal Vows)
The four vows held by all Bodhisattvas. These vows are called great because of the wondrous and inconceivable compassion involved in fulfilling them.
They are as follows:
Sentient beings without number we vow to enlighten;
Vexations without end we vow to eradicate;
Limitless approaches to Dharma we vow to master;
The Supreme Awakening we vow to achieve.
