For if the simple thought to be of help to others
Exceeds in worth the worship of the Buddhas
What need is there to speak of actual deeds
That bring about the weal and benefit of beings?
Engaging in the Bodhisattva Deeds, Shantideva
仅思利众生,
福胜供诸佛,
何况勤精进,
利乐诸有情。
《入菩萨行论》——寂天菩萨
(第一品 菩提心利益 → 三、菩提心利益之依据 → 二 以理成立 → 2. 行心获益之理)
