以愛與慈悲為力量來調伏自心就是菩薩學處。一位菩薩需要能夠妥善的控制自心以平息一切外在的干擾。我們常以為有外在的敵人,但這並非事實。這些敵人是我們自心製造出來的幻覺。除去這個敵人最好的方法是除去憤怒,憤怒才是我們真正的敵人。一旦內在這個敵人(憤怒)被拔除之後,外在的敵人也就隨之消失。要消除這個對於敵人「錯誤的認識」最好的方式,就是培養對所有眾生的愛與慈悲。菩薩是有能力透過掌握自心去化敵為友的。
-神聖的噶瑪巴聽列泰耶多傑
Taming your own mind stream with the forces of loving-kindness and compassion is the practice of a bodhisattva. A bodhisattva needs to control his/her own mind to pacify all outer disturbances. We always believe we have outer enemies but this is not true. These enemies are illusions produced by one’s own mind. The best way to obliterate this enemy is to obliterate anger, which is our real enemy. Once the inner enemy of anger is removed, the outer enemies disappear. The best way to remove the wrong notion of enemies is to develop love and compassion towards all beings. Bodhisattvas have the ability through mind control of turning enemies into friends.
-His Holiness Karmapa Trinley Thaye Dorje
