Beastie Boys Bodhisattva Vow lyrics

As I develop the awakening

Mind

I praise the buddhas as they

Shine

I bow before you as I travel

My path

To join your ranks, I make my

Full time task

For the sake of all beings i

Seek

The enlightened mind that i

Know i'll reap

Respect to shantideva and

All the others

Who brought down the dharma

For sisters and brothers

I give thanks for this world

As a place to learn

And for this human body that

I'm glad to have earned

And my deepest thanks to all

Sentient beings
[ Bodhisattva Vow lyrics found on http://www.completealbumlyrics.com ]

For without them there would

Be no place to learn what

I'm seeing

There's nothing here that's

Not been said before

But I put it down now so that

I'll be sure

To solidify my own views

And i'll be glad if it helps

Anyone else out too

If others disrepect me or give me flack

I'll stop and think before I react

Knowing that they're going through in secure

Stages

I'll take the opportunity to exercise patience

I'll see it as a chance to help the other

Person

Nip it in the bud before it can
