The Bodhisattva Vows

The Bodhisattva Vows. The eighteen root and forty-six branch vows.

“We should feel great happiness when we take the Bodhisattva vows because every moment, we collect merit as vast as the sky; it’s unbelievable. Furthermore, the merit of every virtuous action we do is multiplied millions of times. Even with the realization of emptiness, we still cannot attain enlightenment without taking and living in the Bodhisattva vows. Therefore, we should rejoice that we have the opportunity to take these vows.”

This booklet contains a description of each of the Bodhisattva vows, making it possible to practice them correctly. The practice of taking and making effort to keep these precious vows creates greater mindfulness and awareness. These vows provide clear guidance as to what kinds of actions should be practised and what should be avoided in order to be of greatest benefit to others, develop compassion, and overcome selfish ways of being.
