Two Poems about Bodhicitta

The common view of merit is money in the bank

The uncommon view of merit is knowledge of the inevitability of karma and the Bodhisattva path.

The ingredient that makes the difference is Bodhicitta.

Laughter lightens our load; clinging increases it.

Bodhicitta shifts desire for self to love for all.

Of all dharmas to inculcate, Bodhicitta is the most important.
