They displayed the fearlessness of a lion’s roar which resonated like thunder.
“I explain this phrase as: The great bodhisattvas fearlessly demonstrate the dharma. There is nothing to fear, just like the roar of a lion. Speaking or not, any movement he makes is a like a lion’s roar.”
“All existences are temporary phenomena. Essentially all is emptiness. The great bodhisattvas comprehend this principle; therefore, they can eradicate all habitual tendencies.”
“What is buddhadharma? Everything is buddhadharma. This is very sublime and profound. Therefore, lust, anger, and ignorance are all buddhadharma: Anger that comes from a compassionate heart; lust that is with a pure mind; and ignorance that is destroyed by having the views of both equality and inequality.”
“The great bodhisattvas know about the origination of causes and conditions... They also understand that the origination of causes and conditions is illusory, like a dream. Thus, they cut off all wrong views.”
"The teachings of the great bodhisattvas are the most marvelous and sublime sounds ever heard."
