Je Tsong Khapa
Lobsang Drakpa
(1357-1419)
“Just as I have fallen into the ocean of compulsive existence,
So, too, have all wandering beings – they have been my mothers.
Seeing this, I request inspiration to grow to a supreme bodhichitta aim
To take responsibility to free these wandering beings.”
From Foundation of All Good Qualities by Tsongkhhapa. Translated by Alex Berzin. PDF available from The Berzin Archives.
