When they have seen a world which is a wilderness, full of famine and disease,
They have no fear, and go on putting on the armour,
For the wise are always joined to the limit, which is further on.
They do not produce the least fatigue in their mind. 

Supported by space is air and, by that, a mass of water;
By that again is supported this great earth and the living world.  
It is the foundation of the enjoyment of the deeds of beings and thus it is established in space. 
How can one think of that object?

Just so the Bodhisattva, who is established in emptiness, 
Manifests manifold and various works for beings in the world,  
And his vows and cognitions are a force which sustains beings.
But he does not experience the Blessed Rest; for emptiness is not a place to stand on. 



— The Prajñāpāramitā
