Suffering of a Bodhisattva

Everybody, every minute, is tortured, suffering a lot. We shouldn’t just ignore them and save ourselves alone. That would be a tremendous crime. In fact we CAN’T just save ourselves, because our neighbors are moaning and groaning all over the place. So, even if we could just save ourselves, we wouldn’t have a peaceful sleep. The rest of the world is going to wake us up with their pain.
