Liberating Actions, Six (Skt. Sat Paramita / Tib. Parole Tu Jinpa Druk).
The liberating actions of bodhisattvas.
Usually the following six are mentioned:
- generosity,
- meaningful conduct,
- patience,
- joyful effort,
- meditation,
- liberating wisdom.
-- Quoted from: 'Buddha & Love' by Lama Ole Nydahl.
Blog author's comments.
i read that within six of paramitas there are ten of paramitas, as the six can be divided into a finer elements.
i read that by practicing even a single one of paramitas, all ten of paramitas can be developed.
'para' also means 'other', 'mita' also means 'shore' - it reminds me that with practice 'wisdom goes to the other shore' - vanishes to return in a more perfect form.
Wishes.
i wish to develop all ten of paramitas, using generosity & patience as a way to start from.
i wish to develop excellent & meaningful conduct as far as i can, learning from HH Shamar Rinpoche's books as well.
