For beings long to free themselves from misery
But misery itself they follow and pursue
They long for joy but in their ignorance
Destroy it, as they would a hated enemy.
Engaging in the Bodhisattva Deeds, Shantideva
众生欲除苦,
奈何苦更增。
愚人虽求乐,
毁乐如灭仇。
《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)
