Bodhisattva Vow

Version 1 of the lyrics

As I develop the awakening mind

As I Develop The Awakening Mind I Praise The Buddha As They Shine

I praise the Buddhas as they shine

I Bow Before You As I Travel My Path To Join Your Ranks,

I bow before you as I travel my path to join your ranks

I Make My Full Time Task

I make my full time task

For The Sake Of All Beings I Seek

For the sake of all beings I seek

The Enlighted Mind That I Know I'll Reap

The enlightened mind that I know I'll reap

Respect To Shantideva And All The Others

Respect to Shantideva and all the others

Who Brought Down The Darma For Sisters And Brothers

Who brought down the darma for their 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

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 I'll Be Sure

To Solidify My Own Views And I'll Be Glad If It Helps

Anyone Else Out Too

I give thanks for this world as a place to learn

If Others Disrespect Me Or Give Me Flack

And for this human body that I will have earned

I'll Stop And Think Before I React =

And my deepest thanks to all sentient beings

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 disrespect me or give me flack

Knowing That They're Going Through Insecure Stages

I'll stop and think before I react

I'll Take The Opportunity To Exercise Patience

Knowing that they're going through insecure stages

I'll See It As A Chance To Help The Other Person

I'll take the opportunity to exercise patience

Nip It In The Bud Before It Can Worsen

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

A Change For Me To Be Strong And Sure

Nip it in the bud before it can worsen

As I Think On The Buddhas Who Have Come Before

A chance for me to be strong and sure

As I Praise And Respect The Good They've Done

As I think on the Buddhas who have come before

Knowing Only Love Can Conquer In Every Situation

We Need Other People In Order To Create

The Circumstances For The Learning That We're Here To Generate

Situations That Bring Up Our Deepest Fears

So We Can Work To Release Them Until They're Cleared

Therefore, It Only Makes Sense

To Thank Our Enemies Despite Their Intent

As I praise and respect the good they've done

The Bodhisattva Path Is One Of Power And Strength

Knowing only love can conquer in every situation

A Strength From Within To Go The Length

We need other people in order to create

Seeing Others Are As Important As Myself

The circumstances for the learning that we're here to generate

I Strive For A Happiness Of Mental Wealth

Situations that bring up my deepest fears

With The Interconnectedness That We Share As One

So we can work to release them until they're cleared

Every Action That We Take Affects Everyone

Therefore, it only makes sense

So In Deciding For What A Situation Calls

To thank our enemies despite their intent

There Is A Path For The Good For All

I Try To Make My Every Action For That Highest Good

The Bodhisattva path is one of power and strength

With The Altruistic Wish To Achive Buddhahood

A strength from within to go the length

So I Pledge Here Before Everyone Who's Listening

Seeing others are as important as myself

To Try To Make My Every Action For The Good Of All Beings

I strive for a happiness of mental wealth

For The Rest Of My Lifetimes And Even Beyond

With the interconnectedness that we share as one

I Vow To Do My Best To Do No Harm

Every action that we take affects everyone

And In Times Of Doubt I Can Think On The Dharma

So in deciding for what a situation calls

And The Enlightened Ones Who've Graduated Samsara

There is a path for the good of all

I try to make my every action for that highest good

With the altruistic wish to achieve buddhahood

So I pledge here before everyone who's listening

To try to make my every action for the good of all beings

For the rest of my lifetimes and even beyond

I vow to do my best to do no harm

And in times of doubt I can think on the dharma

And the enlightened ones who've graduated samsara
