Jump to navigation Jump to search





The four precepts for the bodhichitta of application are (to avoid the following):

1) out of desire, to have exceeding attachment to honor and gain and to praise oneself and disparage others,

2) out of stinginess, to refrain from giving material things, Dharma teachings and wealth to others,

3) out of anger, to harm others and be unforgiving when offered an apology,

4) out of stupidity, to pretend that indolence is Dharma and to teach that to others.
