#5
As when a flash of lightning rends the night
And it its glare shows all that the dark black clouds had hidden
Likewise rarely through the Buddhas’ power
Virtuous thoughts arise, brief and transient, in the world.
Engaging in the Bodhisattva Deeds, Shantideva
犹于乌云夜,
刹那耀闪电;
如是因佛力,
世萌修福意。
《入菩萨行论》——寂天菩萨
