"I know that the Bodhisattva is imperfect and suffers frustration, but I must stand and watch this, and not be caught into egoistic suffering."
Guilt is egotistical suffering by its very difinition. Stand up brothers and sisters, dust off, and continue to go forth, recognizing that a drop of water is no different than the ocean and that a candle flame is no different than the sun; the small always mirrors the large, that your practice mirrors the vibrant pledge of all Bodhisattvas past, present and future."
